The Printing toolset provides one tool, Export Web Map, that can be embedded in a geoprocessing service to generate a printable map. Printing from web applications presents various challenges such as the inability to print high-quality images, limited support for multiple column legends, different types of scale bars, the inability to take advantage of templates predefined in the desktop, and so forth. The Printing toolset allows you to submit a job to the server, which puts blended images on a chosen layout template and returns a cartographic quality page that can be printed by the client.
