  web browser can do that, install add-ons 'Seamless Print'
  
  or google with keyword "kiosk printing"

  Thanks Ipong, I have already added --kiosk-printing in Chrome shortcut but still I still need to preview the report and click print button select - Print From Browser and then it print directly to printer and open another tab/windows thru which google printed. To return back, need to closed that tab/window. Any further advise to get output silently right from Print Button on my Form - without getting preview.

  yes, preview window still appears, but automatically print.
  
  create a shortcut with target location :
  "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --kiosk-printing --allow-running-insecure-content --disable-scripted-print-throttling --disable-gdi-text-printing http://localhost/
  
  
  in firefox, install 'seamless print' add-ons , no preview window and automatic printing (i tried one year ago, don't know with current version of firefox and seamless print)

  For experimental purpose
  
  1. asp.net code :
  FastReport.Web.WebReport wr = new FastReport.Web.WebReport();
  wr.SinglePage = true;
  
  2. html page :

  <input type="button" value="Print" onclick="btnPrint();" />
  <script type="text/javascript">
      function btnPrint () {
          var content = document.getElementById("frbody");
          var print = window.open("", "", "left=0,top=0,width=100,height=100,toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,status=0");
          print.document.write("<title>POPUP PRINT</title>" + content.innerHTML);
          print.document.close();
          print.focus();
          print.print();
          print.close();
      }
  </script>
