In this Java tutorial, we explore how to print PDF files using the IronPDF library. We start by setting up a Maven project and adding the necessary dependencies to the pom.xml file, specifically impdf and slf4j. The main Java class, App, contains a main method that initiates the process.

A new PDF document object is created, and the path to the PDF file is specified. The tutorial demonstrates two methods for printing PDFs: using a customizable print dialog box and printing directly without user intervention. The latter is achieved through the printWithoutDialog() method, while the former uses print() to allow users to adjust settings.

print()
The code execution involves opening a print dialog box for customizable print settings, followed by a save dialog box for saving the file. If the laptop is not connected to a printer, Windows defaults to exporting the file as a PDF. The tutorial concludes with an invitation to subscribe for more tutorials and offers support for any queries.
