How to detect window.print() finish

See https://stackoverflow.com/a/15662720/687315. As a workaround, you can listen for the afterPrint event on the window (Firefox and IE) and listen for mouse movement on the document (indicating that the user has closed the print dialog and returned to the page) after the window.mediaMatch API indicates that the media no longer matches "print" (Firefox and Chrome).

Keep in mind that the user may or may not have actually printed the document. Also, if you call window.print() too often in Chrome, the user may not have even been prompted to print.

You can listen to the afterprint event.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/window.onafterprint

window.onafterprint = function(){
   console.log("Printing completed...");
}

It may be possible to use window.matchMedia to get this functionality in another way.

(function() {

    var beforePrint = function() {
        console.log('Functionality to run before printing.');
    };

    var afterPrint = function() {
        console.log('Functionality to run after printing');
    };

    if (window.matchMedia) {
        var mediaQueryList = window.matchMedia('print');
        mediaQueryList.addListener(function(mql) {
            if (mql.matches) {
                beforePrint();
            } else {
                afterPrint();
            }
        });
    }

    window.onbeforeprint = beforePrint;
    window.onafterprint = afterPrint;

}());

On chrome (V.35.0.1916.153 m) Try this:

function loadPrint() {
    window.print();
    setTimeout(function () { window.close(); }, 100);
}

Works great for me. It will close window after user finished working on printing dialog.

compatible with chrome, firefox, opera, Internet Explorer
Note: jQuery required.

<script>

    window.onafterprint = function(e){
        $(window).off('mousemove', window.onafterprint);
        console.log('Print Dialog Closed..');
    };

    window.print();

    setTimeout(function(){
        $(window).one('mousemove', window.onafterprint);
    }, 1);

</script>
