Hello opr108,
Silent printing does work in kiosk. Are you using 5.4.0 version?
Please provide your kiosk config (remove sensitive data from it).
Thanks

Silent printing was fixed in kiosk 5.1.0:

So you need to upgrade your clients to at least this version.

You need to reinstall the client and point it to your remote kiosk config.
Thats all.

Silent print means no preview window in any case? Maybe I'm wrong about that

"Silent print means no preview window in any case?"
Yes
"Well what could be wrong then?"
You are probably loading a different config than you think.
Or maybe you have customized the ISO manually and broke some kiosk functions.
Or maybe you are using Firefox and not Chrome.
Hard to guess ...
Silent printing works for me and for other kiosk users. Something is wrong on your side (human error).
