The window.printf() doesn’t work due to the structure of a WixCode website. The code is sandboxed and the use of HTML and Javascript is strictly limited. Any other option? ---

Hi mustafa. Are you any good in js? You can use a html element, pass data to it, make it show a button, and in it add something like jspdf. With that you can make a pdf in a html page, so in the html element it should funtion too. ---

I understand that there is now no possibility of building a Wicks print button. The only option is by pressing ctrl p. I would be happy to know if anyone knows how I set a button to click on it and call the keyboard as if I clicked ctrl p? Thanks! ---

Do you want to print from html component at also send a message back to Wix Code using the postMessage code? Then use the code to print from iframe and then after or before that ```javascript window.parent.postMessage("Page has been printed", "*"); ``` And that message will be sent back to the code part of your page. ---

This code will help to print a blank page, just the html window but not all the background and content found on the site. ---

You can’t trick the **HtmlComponent** by using parent, window, top, etc. Same goes with the Javascript **evaluate()** function. It is sandboxed and does not allow access to the DOM. ---

Like @salman-hammed said, you can only do this by entering custom JavaScript in the Tracking and Analytics section of a custom site, but it’s very possible. That’s the only set of custom code which has the scope of the webpage itself. ---
