Throwing an error does not seem very compatible either.
Returning a boolean from print() would not be problematic.
Note that desktop UAs support printing most of the time, while handheld
or tv ones don't.
Returning a boolean sounds good to me.
Only issue is that pages might want to be able to detect if printing
is available without actually trying to print. I.e. in order to not
display a print button in kiosk browsers.
Yeah, navigator.isPrintingEnabled or some such could be also useful.
(eventually might be useful to expose UA capabilities in some generic
way, and also some way accessible from CSS media queries.)
