Do you mean this? You submit stuff through http, then you want the server to process it and then generate a printable page? The simplest way is to have the server to produce a properly laid out HTML page, and in the body tag, do this: onLoad="window.print()", so it'll look like <body onLoad="window.print()">. Then all you have to do at the client side is to accept the print.
