  Method #1:
  
  - call Prepare()
  - call PrintPrepared(printerSettings)
  
  
  The only thing you have to find out are the printer settings for the default printer, but this should be quite easy. You find more information in the MSDN library.
  
  Method #2:
  
  Just take a look at the reports PrintSettings: You'll find a "ShowDialog" property. Maybe it helps to set this one to false.

  if you know the name of your printer the following code works just fine:
  

  ReportFast.Prepare();
  
  // print report to pdf printer
  ReportFast.PrintSettings.Printer = "PDFCreator";
  ReportFast.PrintSettings.ShowDialog = false;
  ReportFast.Print();

  It is possble in desktop applications but not in browser applications (asp.net) bacause of security!
