Silent print from an UWP Application #52
Comments
Also see issue https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/issues/2126 which should probably be merged into this issue here. |
The linked thread notes that silent printing works when a WinUI app is built with Win32 appmodel, but not with UWP app model. There's also some discussion there around scenarios where the user shouldn't be surprised by an unexpected (and silent) print. Is it reasonable to say that silent printing should go through a broker with user consent policy when the app is running as AppContainer (independent of UWP/Win32 app model?) |

Let's continue the party on #124 |
I am trying to make a Print application on UWP, but the samples show
await Windows.Graphics.Printing.PrintManager.ShowPrintUIAsync();
This brings the UWP Print Dialog.
I need to print directly without this dialog.
I need something like
await Windows.Graphics.Printing.PrintManager.PrintAsync();
