FAFAIK it's not possible to print a page client-side without showing
the printer dialog box. And it shouldn't be either. You don't want
people to just be able to do all kinds of things on your computer
without being prompted for them.
Page breaks are not part of HTML. Simply because HTML was never
designed for that kind of puposes.
