Print terminal output from iTerm2 to your HP network printer with a single command.

Quick Start

Copy terminal output in iTerm2 (Cmd+C)
Invoke this skill
Review PDF preview, press Enter to print

How It Works

Clipboard → Strip ANSI → Markdown code block → pandoc/xelatex → PDF → Preview → Print

ANSI codes stripped: Colors and escape sequences removed for clean B&W output
Monospace font: DejaVu Sans Mono for proper character alignment
Landscape orientation: Fits ~120 characters per line
US Letter paper: Auto-detected from printer settings

Execution

/usr/bin/env bash << 'PRINT_EOF'
SKILL_DIR="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/doc-tools}/skills/terminal-print"
bash "$SKILL_DIR/assets/print-terminal.sh"
PRINT_EOF

Options

Run with arguments by modifying the execution block:

/usr/bin/env bash << 'PRINT_EOF'
SKILL_DIR="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/doc-tools}/skills/terminal-print"
bash "$SKILL_DIR/assets/print-terminal.sh" --no-preview
PRINT_EOF

| --file FILE | Read from file instead of clipboard

| --no-preview | Skip PDF preview, print directly

| --no-print | Generate PDF only, don't send to printer

| -h, --help | Show help message

Examples

Print from clipboard (default)

# Copy terminal output in iTerm2, then:
/usr/bin/env bash << 'EOF'
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/terminal-print/assets/print-terminal.sh"
EOF

Print from file

/usr/bin/env bash << 'EOF'
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/terminal-print/assets/print-terminal.sh" --file ~/session.log
EOF

Generate PDF only (no print)

/usr/bin/env bash << 'EOF'
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/terminal-print/assets/print-terminal.sh" --no-print
EOF

Prerequisites

All dependencies are already available on macOS with MacTeX:

| pandoc | Markdown to PDF | Required

| xelatex | PDF engine | Required (MacTeX)

| pbpaste | Clipboard access | Built-in

| lpr | CUPS printing | Built-in

Output

PDF location: /tmp/terminal-output-YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.pdf
Markdown source: /tmp/terminal-YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.md
Cleanup: macOS automatically cleans /tmp periodically

Troubleshooting

"No text in clipboard"

Copy terminal output first using Cmd+C in iTerm2.

"Missing pandoc" or "Missing xelatex"

Install MacTeX: brew install --cask mactex

Printer not found

Check printer status: lpstat -p -d

The default printer is HP_LaserJet_Pro_MFP_3101_3108. Edit the script to change.
