printing

Hello,

is there a way to print pdf files from a java webapplication on the local printer of the end user (connected via vpn)? The simple lookup of a printer via Java Printing Service always returns printer which are not able to print pdfs. Are there other libs which can be used for printing in java?

By the way, just opening the pdf in the browser is not an option, though it must be possible to run scheduled batch printing without user interaction.

Thanks in advance
