Java :: Portable Way To Determining Of Printer Is Physical Or Virtual?
Feb 25, 2011
I need direct-to-printer functionality for my website, with the ability to distinguish a physical printer from a virtual printer (file).has this functionality via a native binary which must be installed by the user. I'd prefer to avoid thatI dug through that Java APIs a bit, and don't see anything that would let you determine physical vs virtual, except looking at the name (that seems prone to misidentification). It would be nice to be able to do it in Java, because I already know how to write Java applets. Failing that, is there a way to do this in Flash or Silverlight?

I have a typical Flex-based application that was written to use a Java/Hibernate/MySQL backend. The client changed the requirements - now they want to distribute it on a CD where the user can just run the app without any installation or a network connection.
To do this, I certainly need to eliminate the web server and the database server and adapt my application (with as few changes as possible, of course) to a stand-alone application that will fit on a CD/DVD. I've managed to export the data to XML and read it into Flex, but I'm wondering if there's a way to recreate the Hibernate data structures in Flex so I could change as little code as possible. Failing that, is there any way to keep the existing Java/Hibernate external to the Flex code but retrievable without installing Apache Tomcat or MySQL?

printing directly to a Photo ID Card printer in a web browser?I have a web application that manages user data, photo, and so forth. I'd like to add a Print ID Card feature to it. The web application is a single page javascript application that talks to a RESTful web service via JSON. I'd like to display what the printed card will look like on both the front and back for approval before the user clicks the print button.
Generate front and back JPG or PNG images to print on the server, send them to the client for display and approval, and then somehow send the images to the printer.Use javascript with SVG or Canvas to display the card to print in the UI for approval, then somehow send the SVG/canvas data to the printer.Generate a PDF and print the PDF to the printer.Use Flash to display and print Use a Java applet to display and print Something else?

MVVM In MVVM there can be only one View for each one View Model ?
Answer would be to use DataTemplateSelector to get multiple views. Now let's say I need to port to flex. Does Flex have the same paradigm as DataTemplateSelector?

A friend of mine has created a movie for my site, it's in .flv format. I've heard of the popular flash player called flowplayer, but I have a bad feeling such a player will not work on the ipad and other devices which do not support flash. Is there a way to play a video in the flash format through a non-flash player so that the content can be viewed on all devices?

I'm using an online charting program written in flash. I have Flash 10 and IE8. Each time it draws a chart, my available physical memory decreases. On my WinXP Pro machine with an i7 processor and 4G RAM I can draw ~20 charts before available memory decreases to 1.6G and IE locks up. On my laptop with WinXP Pro, Core 2 Duo and 2G RAM with Flash 10 and IE7 I can draw about ~40 charts before available memory decreases to 160M and IE locks up. It seems that the only way to get the memory back is to close and then reopen the tab. Is this common to Flash or was this program poorly written? Would I have better luck with another browser

I have a Flash object that I need to embed in a page, and I've got it in a wrapper div that is styled to the exact width of the object: 323px. The problem I have is that when I zoom the whole page in the browser (for example, by using ctrl+mouse wheel, or ctrl++ or ctrl+-, the wrapper div zooms, while the flash object does not. Is there a way that I can specify a width in physical screen pixels, so when I zoom in or out, the wrapper div stays the size of the Flash object?

I might get a job for a museum which involves triggering various movies / interactions with physical buttons. The details aren't quite clear yet but I thought I should get started with researching hardware options to be prepared. I imagine there will be a physical button to start the presentation, a button to stop it and perhaps a forward / rewind button? Or it could also be 4-5 physical buttons built into the wall next to a screen each of which would launch different movies. Is this something that can be done in flash at all? Are there such buttons out there that can easily be plugged into a computer through USB and then connected to a simple flash movie?

I tried to create similar animation like this: [URL] I found that it is not very easy to handle those physical motions just by using flash 8 e.g. So I wonder how do you guys handle it.
* Using macromedia flash only?
* Using some plugins (Fusekit, etc)?
* Using Flex?
* Using flash engine?
* Others...?

I've been building an AIR application in AS3 which includes a number of drawing tools, allowing the user to annotate a page with freehand drawings, lines, text etc. I'm almost done and everything tests well on my dev computer but testing on an old XP machine crashed every time I tried to print. Eventually I realised this was due to a mass of data being sent to the printer which that poor old XP machine just couldn't handle. All I'm doing is creating a new printJob with printAsBitmap set to true, and using addPage to add the MC I want to print.
When I look at the windows print jobs dialog I see it's sending 1.68Gb of data to the print spooler! I figured that there must be too much in the MC so I create a bitmapData of the same size and copy it to a bitmap, then add that to a blank MC and send that to the printer - same problem! The MC is 2480x3508 which equates to 300dpi on A4 paper. By my calculations that should be a bitmap of around 33Mb, so where is all the other data coming from.
Here's my PHP Code:
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var result:Boolean = myPrintJob.start();
var options:PrintJobOptions = new PrintJobOptions();
options.printAsBitmap = true;
var thisRect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, 2480, 3508);
myPrintJob.addPage(printTemplate, thisRect, options);
PrintTemplate is a simple MC containing a single bitmap. Both the bitmap and the printTemplate object are 2480x3508 pixels.

Ok, this is a function that used to work...so I didn't check it for a while...and I did not edit it from when it was working in any way...but now the print function does not produce a page from the printer...when I click "Print View" the print dialog box comes up, and I can choose my printer, and when I click ok, there is a tooltip near the windows clock that says document sent to printer, but the printer never does anything...I have tested this in several printers and several computers...I have also tried to output to a pdf...and it allows me to choose a file name to save to but it never creates the file...
print button code:
Code:
printButton.onRelease = function()
{
var pj:PrintJob = new PrintJob();

I'm trying to programmatically print a movie clip to 8.5" x 11" plain paper regardless of the current paper size setting in the printer. e.g if the user's printer is currently set to use paper size A4, can I change the setting to Letter (8.5" x 11") from ActionScript at runtime? I use PrintJob class for printing the movieclip. According to the ActionScript online API spec [URL], I can only READ the paper size setting after the call to PrintJob.start. I can't believe that we are not allowed to change the setting.

A client needs a standard consumer color printer for printing name badges from my flash app. Last time we used the app, I couldn't do any pre-testing of their computer and printer beforehand. So, of course, the margins were completely wrong when the time came to print. Ideally, I'll have the flash app's bugs worked out for the next run, but for safety's sake does anyone know of a printer that has good controls for custom margins and offsets, in case some minor adjustments are needed?

I was wondering if it would be possible to use copyPixel to create a simple text printer for example you have a font as an image like this
[URL] then have some code that will transform your text ="hello world" into HELLO WORLD on your flash screen, but written in that font.
Because the font is spaced equally you could have the source x and y, times by 16pixels for each letter and move the Y source down 16 pixels when it reaches the right side of the image
