Solution 1

Simply select the printer and print. A network printer isn't any different than a local printer when they both are installed. The difference most of the time is that you have to walk a greater distance to pick up your printed goods.

Good luck!

you are right but i dont want to show a dialog box to user to select the printer it should start printing on the default network printer connected.

But there is only one printer marked as Default. If you print from asp.net you probably let the server handle the printing (meaning the code behind is giving the print job) so you can simply set the correct printer on the webserver as default and you have nothing to do with user settings.

Solution 2

Doesn't each local machine have it's own default printer?

The printer control runs from local not server, afaik.
