Hi,

How could I access the scanner/printer etc. devices attached at the client side from the web page which is on web browser?

So on a button click of a web page, the scanner/printer should be access which is located at client.

I have tried with the WCF also but not that much clear with that. I have gone through from this article also.

Client Side Printing, Scanning in .NET[^]

Is there any way using WCF / Jquery / ajax, this problem can be solved?

Thanks.
