Angular printjs: ERROR TypeError: Object(…) is not a function

I'm trying to use printJS in Angular and print an image (PNG). I did the import:

printJS

import { printJS } from "print-js/dist/print.min.js";


Then I execute this printing code in function, according to the documentation:

printJS('no-image.png', 'image');


I got following error:

I can't find solution to fix this.

Try to import the non minified version of the script

@bambam I changed import to import { printJS } from "print-js/dist/print.js"; it compiles without any errors but the problem is the same.

import { printJS } from "print-js/dist/print.js";

Ah it's a node_module.. dfsq's answer should solve it then.

I think you need to use default import for this library:

import printJS from "print-js";


Also, for NPM packages you should never import directly from js path. Usually you would just import from package itself, in your case print-js.

print-js

Thank you for the solution, it works nice! And thanks for the advice I will keep that in my mind :)
