Re: Suppress IE5 Print dialog

Hi,

I'd probably consider something using vbscript, or a custom VB app. Musn't
be too difficult. Try MSDN or the MS newsgroups.

Subject: Suppress IE5 Print dialog


| Hi list
|
| I'm not sure if this is a JavaScript issue or relates directly to IE5 on
an NT Server 4.0 operating system:
| I have an ASP page that runs a report at scheduled times (but always in
the middle of the night).  A JavaScript onLoad event then prints this report
out to a printer on the network.  The problem is that the 'Print' dialog box
is evoked and halts the entire process until the 'OK' button is clicked.  Is
there any way that I can force the dialog to be suppressed?  The print icon
in MS Word does this, but does it mean that I have to change some setting in
the browser? Or is there some setting in the printer driver that needs to be
changed (a LaserJet 4050TN)?
