How to Disable the CTRL+P using javascript or Jquery?

Question

Here I tried to disable the Ctrl+P but it doesn\'t get me alert and also it shows the print options

jQuery(document).bind(\"keyup keydo         


        

Answer 1

This Actually worked for me in chrome. I was pretty suprised.

jQuery(document).bind("keyup keydown", function(e){
    if(e.ctrlKey && e.keyCode == 80){
         Print(); e.preventDefault();
    }
});

Where Print is a function I wrote that calls window.print(); It also works as a pure blocker if you disable Print();

As noted here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/20121038/2102085

window.print() will pause so you can add an onPrintFinish or onPrintBegin like this

function Print(){
    onPrintBegin
    window.print();
    onPrintFinish(); 
}

(Again this is just chrome, but Peter has a downvoted solution below that claims the keycodes are different for ff and ie)
