Printing in XP - printer installed on server

Hi,

I get an IllegalPrinterE xception trying to print the
contents of a DataSet on a Samsung ML1210 printer, says
something like "trying to access the printer with illegal
settings"

The printer is installed by the administrator locally on
the server and the administrator is also the user logged
in when attemptning to print. The web form is run on the
server (no client is involved).

The printer is present in the list of default printers and
the OS is Windows XP. The same application has worked fine
on Windows 2000.

I have tried adding the ASPNET user and granting it
printing privileges however unsuccessful.

Cheers,
Robert

This is the approach I used to automate printing of Microsoft Access reports to PDF format i.e. unattended and without annoying "Save As..." dialogs, and - more importantly - without having to use a commercial program such as Adobe Acrobat and its associated API. The technique uses Ghostscript and Redirection Port Monitor - two free programs for creating PDF documents provided free by Russell Lang. The actual automation requires VBA...
