You can convert the document to PDF and use the approach bellow: Currently, silent async printing may be achieved by using RadPdfViewer WPF control. Sample demo showing how to achieve this may be seen at the following forum post: http://www.telerik.com/forums/pdfviewer-print-makes-ui-unresponsive#js0YdzFWc0Oa8C3g6a18lg The RadPdfViewer WPF control used does not need to be displayed, making this demo a good workaround for ASP.NET AJAX clients.
