Anyone got any experience of printing from within a
J2EE app? We have stored against our user records a "print address" fields which points to a networked printer. I need to fire off print jobs from within the Session Facade which will spool to this named printer. All clients will be on the same network (though not necessarily in the same domain) - the app server will be on the same network too. This needs to be 100% cross-platform (Linux, Windows, UNIX - the lot) I know that there is a
Java Print Service which I understand is primarily for AWT/Swing client-apps. Has any one used it from the server side? Is is possible? Any gotchas I should watch out for? Or is it just a silly idea?
Any ideas/experience is very appreciated.
