Problem with Grid print

[Ali Rahighi]

Hi there

I have problem with print functionality 

when I call the grid.print()
I came to following error :

Is there any things further I should consider? I'd just followed the examples...

We suggest you to ensure the browser pop-up state change or not while the Print the EJ2 Grid. For your reference we have share the issue reproduced the screenshot with cause of that defect too.

Thanks for your attention Hariharan J V

The debugging information I've provided is for when I use chrome debug and putting break point on grid.print() code and step by step debugging  in vs code
On the other hand without any break points there is different error in browser console and that's this :

      I must add pop up is allowed because an empty  print page opens when I click the print button

I think I found it!!

And it seems it's a BUG

because when I set the allowGrouping to TRUE this happens to me.

you can reproduce the bug just by adding allowGrouping={true} (and do not add the Group service in Inject tag)

this was remained lonely after I removed the Group service injection.

It's better to fix this issue it took me a long time :))
thanks

Hi Ali Rahighi, 

Thanks for your update. 

This is not a bug. This is the default behavior which we have stated already in our Documentation. In order to use grouping  We must need to inject the grouping service. Otherwise it may not work. So we suggest you to Inject the required services before using a feature. 

Please refer the following documentation more information:
