Since Mendix is web-based, printing documents is like other web applications: 1. Printing to the default printer 2. You can open the printer dialog from the browser. May be a combination of the file url and some javascript in a urlredirector?

var wnd = window.open('http://mysite.com/file/67364');
wnd.print();
