What people print from apps
Tickets, labels and badges
Event tickets, shipping labels, name badges, check-in passes with a QR code. Render them as a PDF in the right paper size and print in two taps.
Reports, worksheets and recipes
Weekly reports, school worksheets, training plans, recipes and checklists that people still want on paper or as a tidy PDF.
Certificates and confirmations
Course certificates, booking confirmations and signed agreements, printed or saved as PDF straight from the screen where the user sees them.
Add a working print button
About an hour, most of it for the PDF template.
Render a printable file
Generate the invoice, ticket or report as a PDF (or PNG/JPG) on the server, in the page size of the paper you expect: Letter or A4, a 4 × 6 inch label, a ticket. Images are scaled to fit the page on Android.
Make the URL reachable without a login
The app downloads the file from
printItemitself, and the docs require that URL to be publicly reachable from the device. Use a short-lived signed link and keep it free of&and#, for examplehttps://app.yourdomain.com/print/8f3a2c.pdf.Call printitem:// from the button
Navigate to
printitem://?jobName=Invoice%20%23123&printItem=https://…/invoice.pdf.printItemis required,jobNameis optional and must be URL-encoded (Android shows "Print Job" without it). KeepprintItemlast, as in the docs.Keep the browser path
Detect the app through the custom user agent you set in WebViewGold. In a normal browser, keep
window.print()or open the PDF so its viewer can print it.Test with a printer and with Save as PDF
Print a multi-page PDF and an image on iPhone and Android, and try Save as PDF. Check margins, page breaks and the job name in the print queue.
Frequently asked questions
Why does window.print() do nothing in the app?
App WebViews do not implement the browser print command the way Safari and Chrome do, so the call usually has no effect. printitem:// hands a file to the native print system instead, which also handles multi-page PDFs more reliably.
Can users save a PDF instead of printing?
Yes. Android offers Save as PDF in the print dialog, and on iOS users can save or share the document from the print options. Many people use exactly that to file invoices.
Can I print the screen the user is looking at?
printitem:// prints a file from a URL. Render that view as a PDF on the server (most stacks have a PDF library or a headless browser for this) and pass the link; it also looks better on paper than the web layout.
