ASP.Net - Unable to Print on Network Printers

I have an applicaiton developed in ASP.Net. I have installed network
printers on my machine.
(Installed printers include both USB and COM)
When I try to print from other interactive applications it works fine.
In my ASP page I am displaying the list of installed printers on my
machine, i.e. Network and Local.

When I select USB Network printer for printing, it fires an error
message:
"EXTERNAL COMPONENT HAS THROWN AN EXCEPTION"

and

COM Network printer for printing, it fires an error message:
"A NULL CONTEXT HANDLE WAS PASSED FROM THE CLIENT TO THE HOST DURING A
REMOTE PROCEDURE CALL"

Thanks in advance
Prakash

I am developing VB.Net Web application to be used in our department intranet. I created a web-based report using Crystal Reports. I would like to print the report from the web server instead of printing from the browser because the latest will add additional text to the pages and it also requires printing each page separately. In order to do this I followed the steps described in article "Printing Web-Based Reports from the Server",...

I have made an electronic sign out book for my office in ASP using VBScript. Problem is, when there is a fire we need to check who is out and who is burning. I have been trying to think of how to go about this, perhaps the only way is by having an 'emergency print' button that quickly prints thedocument to one, or even better all printers on the network. That way when everyone is leaving they can grab the print from the printer.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
