Re: print directly from pl/sql ?

A few months ago, we had the same problem. The solution we used was a print server which monitored one directory on the server. When we wanted to print a file (we converted the html to plain-text with some basic layout), we saved it to that particular directory. It works like a queue. I don't remember what program we used, but I hope this'll help.
