You start an application across computers in the local intranet. When the application calls the
PrintDialog.ShowDialog method, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following on a computer that has the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 (SP1) installed:
The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. The operation required the SecurityException.To grant this application the required permission please contact your system administrator, or use the Microsoft .NET security policy administration tool.
If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will be shutdown immediately.
Request for the permission of type
System.Drawing.Printing.PrintingPermission, System.Drawing, Version=1.0.5000.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a failed.
This problem occurs because
PrintDialog.ShowDialog method does not have the correct security permissions. By default, the
System.Drawing.Printing.PrintingPermission class is granted the
DefaultPrinting security level in the Local Intranet zone security policy.
