I'm programmer and I need to print 2 files in 2 different printers (labels with Zebra and letter to a sharp), I have the sharp or zebra printer by default and when I send the file to print, this take the default size of the printer default and is printed with that size, a letter like a label and a label like a letter, how can I set a printer default by JAVASCRIPT or send a file directly to a printer by JAVASCRIPT?

Chosen solution

How does the user of your web application initiate the print function?

Are there two separate "Print" buttons on the page? One for labels to the Zebra and another printing the "letter" to the Sharp?
Or is it a sequential type function, where the label is supposed to be printed to the Zebra and the "letter" to the Sharp in one "Print" button operation?
