Hello Nisarg,

Thank you for contacting. Please, avoid posting multiple times on a similar matter, as this really makes our work harder and the responses slower. Also, please keep the posts only to the relative forum, as in this case you need help with Telerik AppBuilder and not with the Telerik UI for iOS. Thank you for the understanding.

Now, about the issue you are experiencing. I managed to import the Cordova printer plugin inside a Blank AppBuilder project, by simply copying it under the Plugins folder. Here is a more detailed workflow for the process. I have also attached my solution for your guidance. Note, the "Printer plugin initialized!!!" on the deviceReady event.

I hope this helps. Further, if this is not enough to get you in the right direction, I will be happy to assist you again. Please, share what the exact issue with the above plugin is. It will help me a lot if you can also provide a sample that reproduces the faulty behavior or even a complete project.

Hi Kaloyan,

some more detail , as i told you we are stuck at the splash screen , we make some change in your code that's as per screen shot.
that's as per below code,

  try {
            if (window.plugin.printer) {
                alert("Printer plugin initialized!!!");
            } else {
                alert("Printer plugin not initialized!!!");
            }
             }
        catch (er) {
            alert(er.message);
        }

so, after putting Try and catch over the code we got the same error which we getting previously in our code.

same as our code in your code too, we are getting same error please find second attachment which is snip for the error in iPad.

please guide me for the same , that will be really appreciable.
 
Thanks 
Madhav.

Hello Nisarg,

I tested the provided by me project on iPad 1, iPad 2 and iPad 3. It worked as expected on all of the devices. So, I believe that should not be an issue.

Further, is there any chance that you are using the AppBuilder Companion App in order to deploy the application? If so, this is expected to fail as custom plugins are not supported there. You will need to Build in Cloud or Build and Deploy your app with appropriate provisioning iOS profile in order to test the plugin.

Please, let me know if this is the case, or there is something else that could be causing the issue and I will assist you again.
