sql-server-2005

I have a SQL Server 2005 SQL Reporting Services implementation. It seems that the only way to actually access the reports is for the users to use Internet Explorer. The web page uses an ActiveX control to do its printing (and probably other functions as well).

Does SSRS have a different way to access its functionality via the web browser? Like maybe Java or HTML based? If so, how do I actually turn it on?

The reason I am asking is because the security is being tightened and ActiveX controls will be banished, thus the users won't be able to print.
