The only way I managed to get the print dialog to auto-open for an exact form that I created was, I believe, to embed it into the html of the page after the initial upload.
Unfortunately, this would tell chrome to generate a printable version of the page while it was still processing - leading to a page full of field tags (~x~) instead of the data.
It was about a year or so ago that I left well-enough alone on it, but it couldn't hurt to explore it again. I'll let you know what I find out.

- BradLemke5 years agoQrew Assistant CaptainInsert this code into your exact form anywhere in the <body> section, possibly best results at the very bottom:
<script>
setTimeout(function() {this.print()},3000);
</script>
This will call up the print function after 3,000ms (3 seconds). You can increase or decrease that number as needed if there are a bunch of images/tables that need to be generated before calling the print function.
