function App() {
function printClicked() {
var viewer = document.getElementById('container').ej2_instances[0];
viewer.print.print()
}
return (<div>
<div className='control-section'>
{/* Render the PDF Viewer */}
<button onClick={printClicked}>Print</button>
<PdfViewerComponent

Customizing Print Quality using printScaleFactor API
The PDF Viewer allows you to adjust the print quality using the PrintScaleFactor API. The quality of the print improves as the printScaleFactor value increases from 0.5 to 5.
When the value is less than 0.5, the PDF is printed at a standard quality. When the value exceeds 5, the PDF is still printed at the standard quality. In standard quality, printScaleFactor value is set to 1 as default value.
The effective range for printScaleFactor is between 0.5 and 5. Higher values within this range will result in better print quality, but also increase the print time.
By default, the printScaleFactor is set to 1.
- The following code snippet demonstrates how to customize print quality using the printScaleFactor API in the PDF Viewer.
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import * as React from 'react';
import './index.css';
import { PdfViewerComponent, Toolbar, Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation, BookmarkView,
ThumbnailView, Print, TextSelection, TextSearch, Annotation, Inject } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-pdfviewer';
function App() {
return (<div>
<div className='control-section'>
{/* Render the PDF Viewer */}
<PdfViewerComponent

documentPath="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/content/pdf/pdf-succinctly.pdf"
resourceUrl="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/27.1.48/dist/ej2-pdfviewer-lib"
enablePrint={true}
{/* pdf with low quality. By changing values you can change the quality of the pdf. */}
printScaleFactor = {0.5};
style={{ 'height': '640px' }}>
<Inject services={[ Toolbar, Annotation, Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation, BookmarkView,
ThumbnailView, Print, TextSelection, TextSearch]} />
</PdfViewerComponent>
