Warning: array_push() expects parameter 1 to be array

You need to use global $printed; or to add $printed as a function parameter.

You may also pass the $printed parameter as reference in your function: http://php.net/manual/en/language.references.pass.php

More about global and variable scopes: http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php

In the scope in which array_push() is called, $printed was never initialized. Either declare it as global or include it in the function parameters:

$printed = array();
.
.
.
function dayAdvance ($startDay, $endDay, $weekType){
    global $printed;
    .
    .
    .
}

OR

function dayAdvance ($startDay, $endDay, $weekType, $printed = array()) { ... }

NOTE:

A faster alternative to array_push() is to simply append values to your array using []:

$printed[] = $newdateform;

This method will automatically detect if the variable was never initialized, and convert it to an array prior to appending the data (in other words, no error).

UPDATE:

If you want the value of $printed to persist outside of the function, you must either pass it by reference or declare it as global. The above examples are NOT equivalent. The following example would be equivalent to using global (and is, in fact, a better practice than using global - it forces you to be more deliberate with your code, preventing accidental data manipulation):

function dayAdvance ($startDay, $endDay, $weekType, &$printed) { ... }
