You can configure Apache to read that directory. It will allow the user to see the list of images, browse them and print the ones he needs. The browser will even allow to print a range of pages.

Thanks Matt.

I would prefer the .Net solution too but didn't know how I would call it.

I'm also thinking of trying EGL but I would have to get past the learning curve and I don't know if I have that long.

One option would be to Call a Java program:

GUI/PrintanImagetoprintdirectly.htm

Here are some tips on calling java programs from RPG:

ols.iseries.pgmgd.doc/c0925076172.htm

Another option (non IBM i solution) is to write the function in .NET (and you
could call it from the IBM i in a whole host of different ways (REST services,
run remote pc command)). For the .NET stuff it's even simpler to print then
in Java, see the code here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2337252/print-image-in-net-winform

By far the easiest solution in my opinion is to do it in .NET if you can. The
amount of code to accomplish the same goal will be much smaller in .NET
versus the alternatives.

Subject: Print images to network printer

I have a requirement to be able to print images stored on our IFS on a
business group's printer. Some of these print requests can run into the tens
of thousands of pages.

Is anyone printing images to network printers from the i? If so, would you
mind sharing how you do it?
