Solution

  • The print button of SSRS report viewer is an ActiveX control.

    This works only on IE. If you are using any other browser you will not be able to load this control. This ActiveX control is known to cause problems with IE 9 too.

    So unless you stuck to a really old environment of IE7,IE8. Don't bother to use the print control that comes with reportviewer.

    Provide a button to export the same report as PDF, and let your users print from there.
