Introduction

This article describes how to disable client-side printing by using the new EnableClientPrinting system property that is introduced in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services Service Pack 2 (SP2).

MORE INFORMATION

In SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services SP2, a new Boolean system property has been added to let you disable or enable client-side printing. To disable client-side printing, set the EnableClientPrinting property to False. To enable client-side printing, set the EnableClientPrinting property to True. By default, the EnableClientPrinting property is set to True.

To set the property to False to disable client-side printing, follow these steps:
  1. Compile and then run the following Microsoft Visual Basic .NET code to set the EnableClientPrinting property to False :
    Imports System
Imports System.Web.Services.Protocols

Class Sample
   Public Shared Sub Main()
	Dim rs As New ReportingService()
      	rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
        Dim props(0) As [Property]
        Dim setProp As New [Property]
        setProp.Name = "EnableClientPrinting"
        setProp.Value = "False" 
        props(0) = setProp
        Try
            rs.SetSystemProperties(props)
        Catch ex As System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException
            Console.Write(ex.Detail.InnerXml)
        Catch e as Exception
            Console.Write(e.Message)
        End Try
    End Sub 'Main
End Class 'Sample
  2. To apply the EnableClientPrinting system property change, you must restart Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS). To do this, click Start, click Run, type iisreset, and then click OK.
