In the Print Button click event prompt the user for their credentials Before passing the print request to the printer.

What language are you using to implement your project?
Are you developing a desktop application or an ASP.NET application?

Please post the code that you have.
You should be prompting the user for their user name and password and checking if this is valid Before you call the print function.

Hello, I'm trying to print the content of a RichTextBox from my VB 6 app. What I want is that the CommonDialog shows up, the user selects a printer and the content of the RichTextBox prints to the selected printer. I'm not concerned about the text format. What I tried is something like this CommonDialog1.ShowPrinter

I'm working on a cross-platform Python program that prints to a receipt printer. The code is simple, I just do something like this: printer = file('/dev/lp0','w') # on Win32, change to 'lpt1' p.write("whatever") p.close() I would like to gracefully handle situations such as when the paper is out or the printer is powered off. Right now the program just hangs.

In my application I need to give the user the ability to print duplex if the selected printer supports duplex printing. Many of the printer options do not make much sense in my application, and many of the settings in the common printer dialog would have a negative impact on my printing process. To handle this strict printing constraint on which my application imposes I do not want to show the common print dialog. I want to be able to...

Does anybody know how to write data directly to the LPT port from MSAccess. Now I use "Open PrtPort For Append Access Write As IntFilenum" then "Print $IntFilenum, ..........." but doesn't work well. LPT port does not initialize and POS printer print weird characters. When user print blank page from notepade, on this time, printing from MSAccess works fine until PC is restarted.

I would like to allow users to set, as an application default, a specific printer to send reports to. I don't know how to bring up a list of valid print devices in A97, nor do I know how to reference any one of them that might be selected. For instance, if I click Start, Control Panel, Printers and Faxes on a PC running XP and I see the following: HP Laser Jet 4200 PCL 6 HP Laser Jet 4200 PCL 5e HP Laser Jet III

I have downloaded the code described in Microsoft article Q154078. I am trying to send raw ZPL (zebra barcode printer) code from Microsoft access. It works just fine if I hard code the actual data in the string being sent to the printer.

Hello all, I'm a longtime programmer (embedded with a smattering of desktop stuff as well) who knows very little about web programming. Right now I am developing the prototype of a multi-user application in MSVC++, but I think it would make more sense to redo the app as a web application (which I know almost nothing about, remember). From poking around I see that PHP is a fairly mainstream candidate for me to consider. Now, I will...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

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,...
