I'm developing a web application in PHP and we need to print some files/labels from this web application. The web application is hosted on a 3rd party hosting provider. The thermal printers are available in the intranet which can be accessed via Windows SBS 2008.

The windows SBS 2008 can be accessed through a public domai/IP. IIS is currently running on the same server.

Is there any way to print the files from Internet by sending a command to the SBS server, something like API request with authentication?

Please note: I have limited access to the system, so installing any softwares on SBS server is not practical.

  • So the server has to be connected to the same network as the printers.

  • The windows server is in the network where the printers are. But the application is hosted on a different dedicated server environment. If all of theme were on same network, the answer is straight forward. But confused with current scenario. Any ways?

  • Some label created from the web application dynamically.

  • If its a web application, why can't you visit it within a browser, and print it off like any website?
