Print pdf direct on client

I want to print a pdf file on server to client printer without

No. The people who designed the Internet decided you weren't allowed to use my printer without my permission.

Forms 10g, how to send ReportServer generated PDF directly to client printr

Hi
We are implementing Forms 10g now, at we are facing quite a big problem - we haven't found a way how to send Report Server generated PDF directly to printer installed in clients computer.
Forms 10g and ReportServer are installed in the same machine and clients are accessing Forms10g through IE. Installing all the printers to the Forms10g server is not an option!
Is there any way of doing it?
Probably we could write a java bean that can read in the byte array and directly somehow send it to clients printer(java can read client printer list) but at this moment I have no idea how to accomplish it - haven't investigated it yet.
So if anyone has working software, please let me know how you achieved it.
Thanks!

may be this will help

Print PDF Directly to Printer - Margins cut off

Hello,
I am using an application called PeopleSoft, and we generate out report files in PDF format.
If I direct the output file directly to the printer then the right and bottom margins are cutting off the document text.
Whereas, if I direct the printer out put to a network drive, then open the PDF in an PDF reader of Acrobate, then print the file it works fine.
Can anyone explain to me why this is so, and if there is a way to change the margins, when sending the output to the printer. To ensure the entire document is printed.
Thanks in advance,
Matt.

Yes, same PDF file.
I run a batch process that generates the report output file, I can choose to direct the output directly to a network printer, or save it to a network drive.
If I choose to direct the output run to the printer then the right margins and bottom margin is cutting off the text of the actual report file.
However, if I direct the output to be saved to the network drive, then open it using Adobe Reader, then print it, the entire report document fits easily within the margins and no text is being cut-off.
I lack the technical knowledge to explain how/why this is happening.

Can't print PDF directly from safari!!

When a PDF opens in safari with Adobe Acrobat 7.0. I can't print it off. It will only print a page with the URL of the PDF file on it. I have to physically save the file, then open it in Adobe or Preview to print it.
Just updated to leopard.
Also, the little printing window that usually pops up on the dock when you print something and then quits itself after printing doesn't quit itself anymore. I have to actually select it and quit it myself. It's very annoying.
Thanks

Print PDF Document Automatically

Hello All,
We are developeing BI Publisher reports from existing oracle custom repots.
One of the solution has to be implemented is "The output PDF file should be printed automatically".
When i googled this a page read,
"As per Bug 1243042, Oracle Applications supports PDF output for viewing only, "This is the way the Applications are designed and implemented... anything beyond this would be more of an enhancement request.". That is, printing PDF directly from the concurrent manager is not supported. This concurrent manager limitation is also present in release 11.5."
Can we print a PDF document automatically upon the compeletion of a request.
If we can then how can i implement this.
Can we use shell program implement this.
Regards,
Kannan Balasubramanian

Hi Ron,
We have R12 on AIX 5.3, I have configured pasta, oracle standard reports like "Active Users" are being printed to printer in post script format.
But I am having issue in printing XML Publisher reports in pdf format, I have extracted ghostscript-8.64.tar and compiled and installed as applmgr with required pdf2ps utility. I have included in tools_path, bounced ccm.
The XML publisher PO print request fails with "/pdf2ps[38]: gs: not found."
Any help is apperciated.
Thanks

Printing PDF report directly to printer, not using orarrp utility

The orarrp utility works only with Windows machines and it
requires installation on both the client machines and servers to
support. We need a more general solution.
Adobe has a java application/applet/javabean (and support
classes) to view PDF, and it is easy to write a java driver
which can be used in place of the orarrp utility. However,
Adobe's Java Viewer is extremely slow, does not produce quality
output, and is explicitly not supported by Adobe.
My question then relates to Reports. When the Report server
returns a PDF in the Previewer, I'm expecting the JINITIATOR,
used by Forms, is also used to support the Report frame and
functionality, including eventual printing. If this is the case,
is there not a set of classes, downloaded with Jinitiator, which
support the fonts, and printing of PDF to locally attached
printers?
And if so, shouldn't we, in Java, be able to make use of these
classes and their APIs to print PDF files directly to locally
attached printers without the need for Previewing first?

within a forms trigger:
1. generate the report
2. copy from iAS to local
like: webutil_file_transfer.url_to_client()
3. print.exe /d:printer filename (for windows OS)

Orarrp can't print pdf file directly to printer

oracle remote print utility (orarrp) can't print pdf file directly to printer.
we expect orarrp utility can handle ".rrpa" file (i.e. pdf file generated on the application server) by directly print the file to the client's printer, i.e. invoke the acrobat reader on the client side, display the the printer selection dialogue, after confirmation print the pdf file, then the acrobat reader close automatically nicely.
However we are disappointed as the acrobat reader startup and display the pdf file content but does not print and does not close.
After testing the problem several times, there are some findings:-
Finding (A):-
(a) for the success of direct printing of pdf file, a physical path must be provided; we have tried 2 methods:
1) using drag & drop to copy the pdf file directly to the browser
2) open pdf file in the browser directly using browser menu-->File-->Open.
(b) for the failure of direct printing, a virtual path is involved and we have also tried 2 methods:
1) when web.show_document() is used
2) enter the url to the URL bar of the browser,
eg. http://appsvr.com:7777/report/test_printout/APPSVR1094707.rrpa (this is a virtual path/url)
Finding (B):-
(a)when the physical path is used, a temporary pdf file is generated in the same directory where the rrpa file exists in the application server,
e.g. in application server: d:/printout/yyy.pdf is generated for d:/printout/xxx.rrpa when direct print occurs
(b) however when the virtual path is used, there is no such temp "pdf" file generated and direct print failed.
May be when virtual path is used, orarrp utility don't know where to generate the temp "pdf" so direct print doesn't occur.
So, anyone has similar experience or further queries or has solutions, please join.
Thanks for your attention.

Hi,
It is really late to give response this post. But still who ever refering to this post for the same issue this solution is useful for achieving same in background:
Even same can be used in smartforms, for getting spool request in PDF format as well which will decrease the size of file when printing in SAP printer.
ct_tline is PDF output:
DATA: lv_pdfsource TYPE xstring.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:<p> TYPE x. " <p> type any.
LOOP AT ct_tline INTO cs_tline.
ASSIGN cs_tline TO <p> CASTING TYPE x.
CONCATENATE lv_pdfsource <p> INTO lv_pdfsource IN BYTE MODE.
ENDLOOP.
* ->Create spool request in PDF format
CALL FUNCTION 'ADS_CREATE_PDF_SPOOLJOB'

Do you know how to config that?

Error when printing a PDF direct from SAP archive

Hi together,
I try to print a PDF direct from SAP archive and I got the error ""C:\Program files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\reader\AcroRd.exe" /p /h" not found. In the internet I found several topics which describe this way to print a PDF without open the Acrobat Reader.
The customizing for document management (Local application) seems o.k. If I remove in the registry the parameters /h /p for print, Acrobat Reader will open and show the document if I use the print button in SAP.
Have anybody an idea what the reason is?
Thank you.
Regards
Thomas

The rundll32 error seems to have disappeared. Until this morning I had both this error and the rundll32. All other types of docs open fine. This one will open if saved to the desktop first, but not from Outlook.

Upload PDF directly to printer via Citrix from off-site computers

Is it possible to upload PDF documents directly to the newer HP printers, especially the business printers and copiers (MFDs)? We have HIPAA-containing data that home-based users must print at work, and therefore cannot be sent via the cloud.
Our current printer vendor supports uploading PDFs directly, which our users are using. The workflow involves printing via PDFCreator, then opening the web interface print tab of the device they are printing to and uploading, via a browse button, the PDF document. The connection is handled through our Citrix remote access servers, everything is encrypted, and all data stays out of the cloud.
Because HP's ePrint is in the cloud, we cannot submit HIPAA-containing data via that route.
If no current HP products have that capability, can it be added? I would think a firmware update to have an upload option would be very doable. It appears that the ability to print PDFs is already present via ePrint--this would only be another way to submit a print job.
Our current printer vendor's device functionality includes being able to upload and print other print-ready formats, including .PCL and .PS files, but we aren't using that capability currently. It would be nice to be able to upload .DOC/.DOCX formats directly.

Hey SPS64,
Thank you for participating in the HP Consumer Support Forums! The steps you desire are not going to be found on Consumer grade printers, but may be able to be found on some of the Enterprise level printers from HP. I would advise posting this question on the Enterprise printing boards where there are many experts who would be willing to assist with your question.

Best of luck,

Print a pdf directly to a printer to avoid repeated ripping of the same image

Hi,
I have created a 3.000 pages document from inDesign heaving its page the same color image as background and variable data. The document exported as pdf. Because of this method the file has very little size (about 3MB). The acrobat print engine take the image once and the resulted pdf does not using a copy in every page but share it (very cool).
The problem that I have is that when I print this pdf using the windows postscript drivers of my industrial printer (Xerox) then it takes very long time to ripp. I think that even if the pdf has only once the image the windows drivers does not understand this and send the image with every page.
I discussed this with someone and told me to print the pdf directly to the printer without the interference of printer's driver. As an example he mentioned that when we have a postscript file we do the same to print it (otherwise the postscript code will be printed) using a command line like lpr and put as an argument the IP of the printer (or using some tools for this like the free PrintFile but tghis is only for postscript files).
Could someone explain to me what he meant? And how is the syntax of the lpr?
Thanks in advance

Do you mean that the information for the label is huge on a letter or A4 page and you want to shrink it to the size of the label, or do you have a small region that you want to print to the label? Your work flow is not coming through at all and it is hard to help as a result.
If you have a label size print on a large page, then crop the page to the label print. Then go to the print menu, select the label paper, set shrink to fit, and print. At least I think that is what you are looking for.

Print pdf file directly from a folder, Adobe Reader X in Windows Server 2003

In previous versions of Adobe Reader we were able to print pdf files groupwise directly when selected in a folder.
Now I've installed Reader X on the Windows Server 2003 environment. Logged in as administrator I can still select <Print> by selecting the right mouse button in a folder. Logged in as a user, this is not available.
I checked user-rights and permissions and made sure they have full control.
Someone who can help us in this matter?
Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
The file menu doesn't show the print option either. We used to work this way, after installing the 9.0 and Reader X version, this option has disappeared from both the File menu and the right mouse button. For other filetypes, for example Excel the Print option is still available and works properly. Logged in as administrator on the serverconsole, there is no problem. So it seams to be something specific to pdf-formats in a server 2003 environment. The userrights are all set on full control (same as administrator).
Thanks again

Acrobat X prints PDF's - but only to desktop unable to Print direct to Folder - Error No Permission

Just installed Acrobat X and since installation I am able to print PDFs however am only able to print to my desktop and am unable to print directly into existing or even newly created folders.
System advises there is no permission to allow the print in the folder and to see the system administrator. As I am the only user,thus administrator, am having a hard time rectifying the situation.
Also noticed that the print window when it first appears is minimized and you need need to use a few clicks to open through "More.... " to get the computer or destop settings. Is there a way to have this print window default totally open to allow immediate access to all options.
Is becoming a bit tedious to go through this process to print PDF and then move from the desktop into the folders, which seems to be no problem at all.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

You've not told us what operating system you're running. If you tell us, we may be able to help you.

Printing Adobe PDF direct to a Server

We have had this problem for a while now on the machines running Tiger in our office. When we use Acrobat 6 or 7 to print PDFs we have no problem printing to the local computer. Ideally we want to print them directly to specific project folders on the server but for some reason we can only print to the first level of each partition. As soon as we want to save to 1 folder deep or more the process runs as normal and appears to have printed but there will be nothing in the folder we asked to save to.
This is not an issue with our Panther machines.
We typically use one of the default settings ('high quality') set in Distiller and always ask to save to a specific location. I really don't know whether this is an Acrobat or Tiger problem but as it happens on all the Tiger machines in our office I hope someone out there has run into the same problem. We would use the OSX built-in PDF printer but we get much better PDFs from Vectorworks if we use Acrobat. I had hoped 10.4.7 would have solved the issue but it hasn't. The server we use is OSX Server 10.1... could this be the problem?
