You need an ActiveX control for the printer you are planning to use.

Is the printer connected to the client machine or on the network...?

It is on client but I can connect these printers to the network. But maybe
asp.net application will be on external web server. Do I need to put it on
internal web server in the company (in the LAN or VPN network)?

I have exact same needs -- print to ticket printer from asp.net page. Printer can be seen on the network from the client. It's possible to make it seen by the asp.net server I suppose, but I would rather just send the print job from the client. reason being is that we are already using mead corp print control to suppress print dialog from web page. So that brings me back to somehow sending raw printer commands to the ticket printer???

can't you use client-side javascript to access the Print item from the main
menu of the browser??
