$scope.printDiv = function(divName) {
  var printContents = document.getElementById(divName).innerHTML;
  var popupWin = window.open('', '_blank', 'width=300,height=300');
  popupWin.document.open();
  popupWin.document.write('<html><head><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /></head><body onload="window.print()">' + printContents + '</body></html>');

Solution 2

Two conditional functions are needed: one for Google Chrome, and a second for the remaining browsers.

$scope.printDiv = function (divName) {

    var printContents = document.getElementById(divName).innerHTML; 

    if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('chrome') > -1) {
        var popupWin = window.open('', '_blank', 'width=600,height=600,scrollbars=no,menubar=no,toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,titlebar=no');
        popupWin.window.focus();
        popupWin.document.write('<!DOCTYPE html><html><head>' +
            '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" />' +
            '</head><body onload="window.print()"><div class="reward-body">' + printContents + '</div></body></html>');
        popupWin.onbeforeunload = function (event) {
            popupWin.close();
            return '.\n';
        };
        popupWin.onabort = function (event) {
            popupWin.document.close();
            popupWin.close();
        }
    } else {
        var popupWin = window.open('', '_blank', 'width=800,height=600');
        popupWin.document.open();
        popupWin.document.write('<html><head><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /></head><body onload="window.print()">' + printContents + '</body></html>');
        popupWin.document.close();
    }
    popupWin.document.close();

    return true;
}

You can now use the library called angular-print

Solution 4

I done this way:

$scope.printDiv = function (div) {
  var docHead = document.head.outerHTML;
  var printContents = document.getElementById(div).outerHTML;
  var winAttr = "location=yes, statusbar=no, menubar=no, titlebar=no, toolbar=no,dependent=no, width=865, height=600, resizable=yes, screenX=200, screenY=200, personalbar=no, scrollbars=yes";

  var newWin = window.open("", "_blank", winAttr);
  var writeDoc = newWin.document;
  writeDoc.open();
  writeDoc.write('<!doctype html><html>' + docHead + '<body onLoad="window.print()">' + printContents + '</body></html>');
  writeDoc.close();
  newWin.focus();
}

I have a single page web application using angularJS. I need to print a div of certain page. I tried the following:

The page contains few div (print.html)
```
<div>
  <div>
    Do not print
  </div>
  <div id="printable">
    Print this div
  </div>
  <button ng-click="printDiv('printableArea');">Print Div</button>
</div>
```
The controller has following script:
```
$scope.printDiv = function(divName) {
    var printContents = document.getElementById(divName).innerHTML;
    var originalContents = document.body.innerHTML;        
    document.body.innerHTML = printContents;
    window.print();
    document.body.innerHTML = originalContents;
}
```
This code prints the desired div but there is a problem. the statement document.body.innerHTML = originalContents; replaces the body of the whole application since it is a SPA. So when I refresh the page or click on print button again, the whole content of the page is erased.
