when I use pyqt5 browser to Visit specific web pages ,in this pages has a print button,but when I click this print button the browser has no response.in Firefox browser,after I click print button,the printpreview is showing,and the i can choose printer.
According to this, print preview is not yet available for QtWebEngine, so you can only directly print.
To catch the print request of a page, you need to connect the printRequested()
signal.
class PrintTest(QtWidgets.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(PrintTest, self).__init__(parent)
layout = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout(self)
self.view = QtWebEngineWidgets.QWebEngineView()
layout.addWidget(self.view)
self.page = QtWebEngineWidgets.QWebEnginePage(self)
self.view.setPage(self.page)
self.page.printRequested.connect(self.printRequested)
# load a page that has a print request
self.view.load(QtCore.QUrl(
"https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/tryit.asp?filename=tryjsref_print"))
def printRequested(self):
defaultPrinter = QtPrintSupport.QPrinter(
QtPrintSupport.QPrinterInfo.defaultPrinter())
dialog = QtPrintSupport.QPrintDialog(defaultPrinter, self)
if dialog.exec():
# printer object has to be persistent
self._printer = dialog.printer()
self.page.print(self._printer, self.printResult)
def printResult(self, success):
if success:
QtWidgets.QMessageBox.information(self, 'Print completed',
'Printing has been completed!', QtWidgets.QMessageBox.Ok)
else:
QtWidgets.QMessageBox.warning(self, 'Print failed',
'Printing has failed!', QtWebEngineWidgets.QMessageBox.Ok)
self.printRequested()
del self._printer
