Answer 1

I know it´s an old question, but you can do it like this:

function printExternal(url) {
    var printWindow = window.open( url, 'Print', 'left=200, top=200, width=950, height=500, toolbar=0, resizable=0');
    printWindow.addEventListener('load', function(){
        printWindow.print();
        printWindow.close();
    }, true);
}

Tested in Firefox and Chrome. IE9 doesn´t work.

No longer work on Chrome, code adapted from Coder answer here:

function printExternal(url) {
    var printWindow = window.open( url, 'Print', 'left=200, top=200, width=950, height=500, toolbar=0, resizable=0');

    printWindow.addEventListener('load', function() {
        if (Boolean(printWindow.chrome)) {
            printWindow.print();
            setTimeout(function(){
                printWindow.close();
            }, 500);
        } else {
            printWindow.print();
            printWindow.close();
        }
    }, true);
}
