Can't print to Zebra label printer when deployed to WLS

DavidGressFeb 8 2016 — edited Feb 10 2016

Using Jdev 12.1.3 on Windows Pro

My WebApp needs to print labels to a Zebra label printer. The printer is a Windows printer with name \\print1\Zebra-2. We tried printing from the webapp deployed to clustered WLS and didn't get any exceptions but no label printed either. A colleague suggested running the app on integrated WLS and see if symptoms changed. This was a great idea as the label printed first time we tried.

Question is, why? Is there some configuration item that clustered WLS needs? Tried some google searches but no luck at this time.

The printer name is stored in a database table and doesn't show up as installed on the server but it doesn't show up on local machine either so I'm ruling out printer driver as a problem.

The app has ADF Security enabled when deployed. I tested in ADF Library when it worked isolated from the secured app.

Is there some WLS port or security device that needs to be opened?

Thanks in Advance,

Dave
