    VB .Net Automatically Print Remote SRS Report

    Hello, everyone!

    I'm attempting to write an application that will print SRS reports. These reports are developed and used on a remote server. I can load and see these reports in the ReportViewer object. However, some of these reports will need to be printed automatically.

    Is there any way to automatically print a remote SRS report to the client's default printer without input from the user?

    Thank you!

    [Edited for clarification]

    This is a work around

    export the report to pdf to known or temp location (reportSaveLocation)

    print the pdf using this code
    Code:
      Dim MyProcess As New Process
                    MyProcess.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
                    MyProcess.StartInfo.Verb = "print"
                    MyProcess.StartInfo.FileName = reportSaveLocation
                    MyProcess.Start()
                    MyProcess.WaitForExit(20000)
