I am developing a interal application for our organization where we have default Windows authentication for all applications.

My requirement is to display all installed printers in the local machine. I am using WebClientPrint for ASP.NET to load printers.

I have installed the wcpp-2.0.15.918-win.exe, in my local machine and server.
While i am testing the application in localhost its working fine and loading printer names.
But after deploying the application on server, it is not loading the printer names!! I also tried with these given settings from WebClientPrint with ASP.NET Authentication enabled but failed

I am using, MVC Framework 4.5, c#, Windows authentication.

That's a commercial component. Presumably they provide you with support in exchange for your money?

Well, why not ask them anyway? If they think they're going to get a sale out of it, I'm sure they'll be willing to help. :)

we had a long day discussion! They were unable to figureout the issue. So came here!

So the people who actually wrote the component don't know the answer?

In that case, I don't fancy our chances of fixing it! :)

Is the trial version you're using restricted to only work on "localhost"?
Is there a trial-version setup you need to run on the server?
Are there specific security settings you need to apply to the real site to make it work?
(Don't forget, in IE, "localhost" is in the Local Intranet zone, whilst your real site probably isn't.)
