Printing from a browser in a web application

We have an application that uses LPR to print barcodes back to the client. When the client requests a bar code from their browser, the server sends a print job back to their ip address using LPR. This works very well, but we now need to add some clients who will be behind a nat firewall. The server will only be able to communicated with them using responses to HTTP requests.

The application is a checkin system for church nursery's so it is important to suppress print dialog boxes that may be generated by the browser.

I think we can create a solution using VBScript that will work with Windows. Are there any other ways to handle printing through the browser that don't depend on having a windows operating system?

Thanks!
