Using JavaScript I can write
window.print();
This will show the print dialog for the user to print the screen. My question is how can I tell whether the page was actually printed or whether the user clicked cancel.
You can’t. The printer diaglog box does not pass anything back to the browser once the JS calls it so there is nothing to listen or check for after the print dialog box is displayed.
