Maybe check the docs? sorry if thats snarky but, its right there in the livedocs. Otherwise if you are really just trying to provide a pdf for a user then just take out your "cfprint" and let the user print it.
cfprint *Description* Prints specified pages from a PDF file. Use this tag to perform automated batch print jobs. Use the cfprint tag to print any PDF document, including those generated by the cfdocument<file:///Users/sross/Downloads/html/Tags_d-e_05.html#3765835> , cfpdf <file:///Users/sross/Downloads/html/Tags_p-q_02.html#2922772>, and cfpdfform <file:///Users/sross/Downloads/html/Tags_p-q_03.html#2938666> tag. Also, you use this tag to print Report Builder reports exported in PDF format. .... further down the page.... printer Optional The name of a printer. An example in Windows is \\s1001prn02\NTN-2W-HP_BW02. The default name is the default printer for the account where the ColdFusion server is running. Printer names are case-sensitive and must be entered exactly as they appear in the System Information page of the ColdFusion Administrator. For more information, see Usage.
