printing report from access point using printer from server

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem generating a report.

I have a user that does not have any PDF creating software on his machine. He uses the IE Plugin to view the document on an access point. My Server has PDF-XChange 3.0 installed on it, and I was wondering if it were possible to write a macro so that he could click a button and it would use the server's PDF-XChange to produce his report.

Would something like this work? Would he need special permissions to access that printer?

ActiveDocument.PrintReport "RP01", "servername\\printername", false

I know of no way to do this. Put there are several free PDF printer software on the web if you search for them.
