A printer attached to the webserver or the user's machine?

You can't print to the user's machine from asp.net as your .net code runs on the server and has no access to client hardware. All you can do is show them the image of the receipt or the document or whatever and they will print it off themselves.

Trouble is, you can't call that from Javascript, and you can't access the user's printer from the server. :)

Ah ... another one that doesn't know where what executes. :sigh:
