Is it possible to print using a printer using Apex code?

Hi,

 

I have to print the current page using the printer connected to my system.
I would like to open the 'Print Option' using Apex code.
Is this possible?
Please help...


Thanks
Ambily

I doubt you'd be able to do this via APEX, as that is server side.  You can do this via JavaScript that executes client-side, so if you are using VisualForce or a custom button it should be possible.

 

The JavaScript is : window.print();

 

This will open the print dialog for the browser.
