RE: Printing from java

I use I text to read the PDF file into a browser and launch the print to the 
user's default network printer. 
Itext has a sample of this in their documentation.
If this is being done from the as400. Use Client access to launch a PC Start 
that launches a URL. This cannot be done on a dumb terminal (please don't tell 
me you are still using them).

Hi Ashish.

Thank you for your reply.

In my case, displaying anything is not an option. I need complete the 
process including the print without user intervention.
What is that IBM product?
