Direct Print

For iOS its possible to send the content directly to the printer without any dialog. Todo so pass the network URL as an option:

cordova.plugins.printer.print(content, { printer: 'ipp://...' });

To let the user pick an available printer:

cordova.plugins.printer.pick(function (url) {});

It's possible to specify the position of the picker:

cordova.plugins.printer.pick({ top: 40, left: 30 }, callback);

Note: By passing an invalid URL, the application will throw an Unable to connect to (null) exception and possibly crash.

Printable Document Types

The list of supported document types differ between mobile platforms. As of writing, Windows UWP only supports HTML and plain text.

To get a list of all printable document types:

cordova.plugins.printer.getPrintableTypes(callback);

To check if printing is supported in general:

cordova.plugins.printer.canPrintItem(callback);

Or in particular:

cordova.plugins.printer.canPrintItem('file://css/index.css', callback);

Sample

var options = {
    font: {
        size: 22,
        italic: true,
        align: 'center'
    },
    header: {
        height: '6cm',
        label: {
            text: "\n\nDie Freuden",
            font: {
                bold: true,
                size: 37,
                align: 'center'
            }
        }
    },
    footer: {
        height: '4cm',
        label: {
            text: 'Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1749-1832, deutscher Dichter, Naturforscher',
            font: { align: 'center' }
        }
