  1. First make sure Chrome is totally shut down.
  2. Then create a new shortcut for Chrome on your desktop with following parameter " --kiosk-printing".
    1. You can also include another parameter to make Chrome full screen by default " --kiosk".
  3. Here is how the Target field should look (replace the i21 URL with the one you want):
    1. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --kiosk --kiosk-printing http://rsdemo.irely.com/i21Source
  4. Then run the Google shortcut and you should be able to print to the default printer without any installed plugins or seeing the normal Chrome print preview screen.

 
The only drawback is while you are running that shortcut of Chrome, ALL printing will be direct with no way to select a different printer or preview what you will print first. 
Issues

  1. You cannot print to more than one printer at a time with the kiosk feature. It simply prints 1 copy to the workstations default printer and that's all it can do.
  2. All printing will be direct with no way to select a different printer or preview what you will print first.
