Karvesh,
Do you mean the print on server button or the normal print button?

Karvesh,
The Web Viewer essentially does the same thing except instead of
downloading it, it just renders to a byte array output stream, which it
then sends to some print utility classes to print it. Do you already
have code for sending it to the printer?

The viewer does this using AJAX calls back to the server that retrieves
a pdf to print. Maybe you could use javascript to call php page like
the one below:
<?php
header("Content-type: application/pdf");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=downloaded.pdf");
define ("JAVA_HOSTS", "127.0.0.1:8080");
define ("JAVA_SERVLET", "/JavaBridge/JavaBridge.phpjavabridge");
require_once("java/Java.inc");
session_start();
$here = getcwd();
$ctx = java_context()->getServletContext();
$birtReportEngine =
java("org.eclipse.birt.php.birtengine.BirtEngine")->getBirtEngine($ctx);
java_context()->onShutdown(java("org.eclipse.birt.php.birtengine.BirtEngine")->getShutdownHook());
try{
$report =
$birtReportEngine->openReportDesign("${here}/TopNPercent.rptdesign");
$task = $birtReportEngine->createRunAndRenderTask($report);
$taskOptions = new
java("org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.PDFRenderOption");
$outputStream = new java("java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream");
$taskOptions->setOutputStream($outputStream);
$taskOptions->setOutputFormat("pdf");
$task->setRenderOption( $taskOptions );
$task->run();
$task->close();
} catch (JavaException $e) {
echo $e; //"Error Calling BIRT";
}
//echo $outputStream;
echo java_values($outputStream->toByteArray());
?>
But instead of echoing the pdf stream send it to the printer?
