Printer Plugin

(Android, iOS, Windows 10) Enables Hybrid SDK (Kapsel) applications to print documents.

The Printer plugin supports printing documents in three ways:

Print the current page from within the application.
AttachmentViewer plugin – print a document opened with the AttachmentViewer using the InAppBrowser.
Background printing – print a document without the AttachmentViewer or the InAppBrowser. The content does not appear in a webview, and no preview is available prior to printing.
