Printing about kiosk

[matt-cook]

It should be possible using window.print(); Although, it's possible it may require a flag to print silently or additional permissions set in the kiosk app manifest, or chromebox management console. Have you done any testing?

Thanks for the quick response. I have not done any testing on the kiosk app. I just got the chromebox and have been playing around with the hardware and chrome OS. I only installed the kiosk app and liked what I saw.

I noticed that the hot keys to print, or the right click to print do not work in Kiosk. I am not using a Chrome OS keyboard (that comes in today), so I do not know if there is a key that can be programmed for print.

I will dig deeper into the app and see what I can find.

Thanks,

Jeff

@sunnykoundal:

I am using Kiosk app of chrome and printing is not working in that.
but on other hand if I manually create a kiosk in chrome by changing in property of chrome by adding

--kiosk --kiosk-printing --enable-print-preview "http://localhost:55573/"
into target under shortcut tab.

Its working fine for me.

@matt-cook
Thanks to draw me here, Actually I already visited this link. I am using same window.print(); in my application, but no luck in kiosk app. I am able to do in chrome by manually change in properties as I mentioned in my thread #152. I hope you understand my issue.

Hi, I'try added windows.print() but it can not show webview after read URL , it show only html page.

Unfortunately, silent printing doesn't seem to be possible on all platforms. However, optionally printing via CTRL+P and the standard dialog will be available in version 5.11.0: #10
