I need a way to print a webpage to the default printer in Windows without
showing the printer dialog.

When using the document.print() function the printer dialog appears every
time, so is there any other function to print without showing the printer
dialog? Or should I a create a control and put it on the page?

How would you do this?? Any examples or reference would be greatly
appreciated!

Best regards,
Tommy Olesen

No. This would be a security hole.
Web pages shouldn't be allowed to just print anything to your printer
without your permission. I could imagine lots of slimy things some people
would do if this was possible.
