I'm developing an internal Google Chrome Extension that needs a way to initiate print the current page to the printer. I do not want the default Print dialog to come up (so, javascript:window.print() is out of question).
As far as I understand, this is not possible just with the JS + HTML plug-in, so I'm also open to using the NPAPI plugin also (with a dummy mime-type). And I'm concerned for Windows platform only.
I'm also open for various hacks / workarounds if possible, though a standard solution would be nice.
If you think this is not possible, let me know if you know any feature request logged for it?
Any suggestions/clarifications are welcome..

Enable auto print In Chrome this is called "silent printing" or "kiosk printing". After creating the desktop shortcut, right click the shortcut and click "Properties". Click Apply. Now, when you use this shortcut to Chrome, goods out notes will be sent directly to the default printer.
Function description. Silent printing, that is, when you click Print, the option window and printer setting window will not pop up, and you can print directly. No client printing,Local printing,Server-side printingSupport silent printing.
When you want to print or PDF a webpage, click the "Print Friendly" button in your Extensions Toolbar.
In chrome (v18+) we have the --kiosk --kiosk-printing switches. One can print automatically to default printer without print confirmation.
