Problem with PrintToPrinter on webapp using win 7.0 64 bit server

[MzKitty]

I am using vs2008 for my web application. Everything runs fine on the current win 7.0 32 bit server, but we are trying to upgrade to a 64 bit server with the newest version of Sql Server 2008 r2 and the crprinttoprinter is not working. I have installed the crystal runtimes for win 7.0 64 bit, but when the user clicks on print, it never sends the report to the printer queue. It acts like it printed, but it doesn't. Do I have to install the crystal runtime for win 7.0 64 bit on my development computer, so that when I compile and publish to the website it has the correct crystal dll's? The app works fine if the report selected goes to acrobat and you print from it, but not when I try to print directly to the server's default printer.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Has the printer been installed on the new server (and set as default?)

Yes it has. I finally got it to print, but I had to code my report as:

crReport.PrintOptions.PrinterName = "\\Consumers_1\acct-laser"
crReport.PrintToPrinter(1, False, 0, 0)

It should have gone directly to the default printer, but I had to tell it the network sharename. Thanks for replying to my thread.
