Python - Selenium - How to use Browser Shortcuts

Question

Once a browser page is loaded I\'m looking to use the CRTL+P shortcut in Goggle Chrome to enter the print page and then simply press return to print the page.

Answer 1

from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

ActionChains(browser).send_keys(Keys.CONTROL, "p").perform()

that would send the keyboard shortcut for a print dialog

I haven't found a way to do this in FF for printing though - ctrl+p will open the print dialog, but FF has a focus bug that doesn't allow one to do Keys.ENTER for the dialog itself

hopefully this will work for you in Chrome, I haven't tested it there

please update if you find a way around this - possibly try AutoIt

If none of the above works you can always do

browser.get_screenshot_as_file( path + 'page_image.jpg' )
