Question on Universal Printer and HTML5

Hi everyone,

I have some users that print 100's of things each day. They are asking me if there is anyway to bypass the "Output Options" screen that comes up with:
'Selected Printer - Universal printer' Report Destination - printer, preview, print to a pdf file'. Has the OK, Cancel and Setup box.

Is there any way to bypass this and just always have the .pdf open in the new tab (like it does when you click OK)?

Thanks!!

It looks like there may be some hope for this, but this programming is waaaay beyond me:

Hello, actually browsers do not allow it directly what you want, do not let you iritate about. Even in the link provided you got answer, it is not possible... Remember, you have ALWAYS browser between remote session and your computer.
However, I could write extra tool for Windows, that you would need to INSTALL on your WINDOWS system (mobile systems would be unsupported), also prepare your PC so, that it would accept links called from browser, and from browser side pass the link to pdf file. My tool would get the link, download it (however proxy would be unsupported too) and try to call it with printing command, if pdf auto print supported by system.
Actually it works only in my mind ;-)
