Window.print() to Link-OS Zebra Printer?

Question

Is it possible to print from Chrome Mobile (android) to a Link-OS Zebra Printer like this one using window.print()?

For example, when window.print() is called, a dialog box is opened asking the user to select the printer, orientation, etc. If a Zebra Printer is connected via WiFi or BlueTooth, would the Zebra Printer show up as one of the options?

Also, would the file to be printed need to be a zpl file or would a pdf also work?

It is possible to use window.print() on Chrome for Android (Functionality for it was added in this commit). There are no requirements that I can find regarding the file format.

Regarding that specific printer, as long as it is recognized by Android, it should work correctly.

@FlorianWidtmann Unfortunately the project got killed and I never tried this solution so I cannot confirm or deny if it works. Can you?
