Hello,
I am making an application using the examples from the Javascript API. I need to make a tool for printing the map. Can someone please give me some directions? The examples from ArcScripts has code using C# and Java etc.

If this is not possible without them or if there is a workaround, I would like to find out.

Thanks in advance

My understanding is that it is not possible merely by using the Javascript API. You do have to use C# or Java on the server side.

The assumption is that for print, you need high-resolution output. Otherwise you would just use a print-screen operation.
You have to basically re-implement the map service (server side), for print format.

Sorry if that's a discouraging answer. But it is doable.

Does anybody have some steps explaining how to print then?  I've got a Javascript web app and users are wanting to print from it.  Is there any examples on how to get this done?
