<p> hello <b>world</b></p>

Thank you in advance.

    get-content c:\test.html  | out-printer

    Print to default printer.

    Edit:

    if you need print rendered htlm page:

    $ie = new-object -com "InternetExplorer.Application"
$ie.Navigate("c:\test.html")
$ie.ExecWB(6,2)

    Edit after comments:

    I can run this in a testprint.ps1 file:

    $ie = new-object -com "InternetExplorer.Application"
$ie.Navigate("c:\test.html")
while ( $ie.busy ) { Start-Sleep -Seconds 3 }
$ie.ExecWB(6,2)
while ( $ie.busy ) { Start-Sleep -Seconds 3 }
$ie.quit()
