I would like to put a button on a form that will send the document straight to an assigned printer without any further action on the users part and have it print 2 copies of the document. Adobe 9 Forms Thanks!

Hi arnolddoug665,

In general, for security reasons you cannot print without user interaction or without having the print dialog appear for user input. There are some ways to work around some of this with JavaScript, but it depends on if you want this to work in a closed system (all people you know and have access to their systems) or open (you want to place this type button on a form for general population use). See the post below for more details on using JavaScript for creating custom print parameters.-

Hope this helps,
