Print Current Slide - JavaScript Issues in Chrome

Oct 22, 2014

Hi everyone,

I've been looking around here for a solution to a problem that I have, but it looks like no one has solved it yet.

I currently have a button on one of my slides that allow people to print the slide they're currently on. This works by using the following JavaScript trigger:

window.print()

When you click it in Internet Explorer, the slide prints just fine, but when you use Chrome (and I've heard Firefox as well) all that prints is a blank sheet of paper.

Does anyone have any new ideas on this topic? I've seen people discussing it, but like I said before, I don't think anyone's solved it yet.

Also, if there is no solution, would there be another way to allow users to print a current slide?

Thank you!

Disable the PepperFlash plug-in in Chrome. Follow these steps:

Open a tab in Chrome and type chrome://plugins  in the URL bar. Press Enter.
Click Details.
On the Plug-ins page, in the Adobe Flash Player section, click Disable.

Then restart your browser and check now.
