Redistribution

Distribution with ASP & HTML

For ASP Printer to function (print) on a web server or on a stand-alone LAN (Local Area Network) server, you just need to run the setup wizard of the ASP Printer component on the server. Everything needed will be installed and registered automatically by the setup wizard and the component will be ready for use.

If you need to print on the client machines that access your ASP pages or HTML pages on your web site, you need to insert an <object> reference tag in your ASP or HTML pages in order to automatically download the component (and other required files) to the client machine and install it. Once the component is installed on the client machine, your printing code (VBScript or JavaScript) in the HTML page can be executed to print your documents on the client machine.

In both cases, Microsoft Internet Explorer is required (either on the server or on the client) in order for the component to function properly.

Distribution with Visual Basic applications

ASP Printer has the following dependencies:

- Visual Basic 6 runtime libraries

- Microsoft Rich Textbox Control (Richtx32.ocx)

- Microsoft Internet Explorer

Therefore, when you distribute your applications, the Richtx32.ocx must be included in your setup package. The Visual Basic setup wizard will automatically add this file to your setup package because it will detect it from the dependency file of the ASP Printer component (ASPPrinter.dep). The VB runtime libraries will also be automatically added to your setup package because they are already required by your application. For Internet Explorer, nothing should be added; it must exist on the user machine in order for the component to function.

Distribution with applications developed in other programming languages (VB.NET, C#.NET, VC++, Delphi, etc.)

ASP Printer has the following dependencies:

- Visual Basic 6 runtime libraries

- Microsoft Rich Textbox Control (Richtx32.ocx)

- Microsoft Internet Explorer

Therefore, when you distribute your applications, you must include the Visual Basic 6 runtime libraries and the Richtx32.ocx file in your setup package. For Internet Explorer, nothing should be added; it must exist on the user machine in order for the component to function.

ASP Printer component runtimes are royalty-free and can be used in any type of applications including commercial applications. You will not need to re-pay VBGold Software for distributing the component with your applications to your end users.
