The plugin creates the object ```window.plugin.printer``` with two methods:
### isServiceAvailable() ###
Printing is only available on devices capable of multi-tasking (iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 etc.) running iOS 4.2 or later. You can use this function to hide print functionality from users who will be unable to use it. Function takes a callback function, passed to which is a boolean property.
alert(isavailable ? 'Service is available' : 'Service NOT available');
}
);
```
### print() ###
Function takes an html string and (optionally) a success callback and a failure callback.
```javascript
// Get HTML string
var page = document.body.innerHTML;
/*
* Pass an HTML and - optionally - success function, error function.
*/
window.plugin.printer.print(page);
```
#### Testing in the iOS Simulator ####
There's no need to waste lots of paper when testing - if you're using the iOS simulator, select File->Open Printer Simulator to open some dummy printers (print outs will appear as PDF files).
#### Adding Page Breaks to Printouts ####
Use the 'page-break-before' property to specify a page break, e.g.
```html
<p>
First page.
</p>
<pstyle="page-break-before: always">
Second page.
</p>
```

Note: you will need to add an extra top margin to new pages.
#### Printing on Real Printers ####
Printing is only supported on AirPrint-enabled printers or with the use of third-party software on your computer. The following pages contain more information:
