# Auto print PDFs using JavaScript

If you want to start printing a PDF the moment it’s loaded, you can do this with the [`instance.print()`](https://www.nutrient.io/api/web/NutrientViewer.Instance.html#print) API method.

Call this method when the SDK has finished loading, and a printing dialog indicating the PDF has started printing will appear:

```js

NutrientViewer.load(configuration).then((instance) => {
    // Print when loaded.
    instance.print();
  }).catch((error) => {
    console.error("Failed to load document:", error.message);
  });

```
