You can use LEADTOOLS Document SDK technology in your application.
https://www.leadtools.com/sdk/products/document
LEADTOOLS offers the ability to print a document on the client-side without accessing a back-end service inside the DocumentViewer object using the Print method.

DISCLOSURE: I am an employee of the company offering this toolkit.

Below is a tutorial of how to use the HTML5/JS DocumentViewer object.

HI Suraj,

Find Sample String whichi am passing is attched file as PrintTest.txt ..

Javascript :

function PrintDiv123() {
var contents = $("#txtReport").val();
var frame1 = document.createElement('iframe');
frame1.name = "frame1";
frame1.style.position = "absolute";
frame1.style.top = "-1000000px";
document.body.appendChild(frame1);
var frameDoc = frame1.contentWindow ? frame1.contentWindow : frame1.contentDocument.document ? frame1.contentDocument.document : frame1.contentDocument;
frameDoc.document.open();
frameDoc.document.write('DIV Contents');
frameDoc.document.write('');
frameDoc.document.write(contents);
frameDoc.document.write('');
frameDoc.document.close();
setTimeout(function () {
window.frames["frame1"].focus();
//javascript: user_pref('print.always_print_silent', 1);
window.frames["frame1"].print();
document.body.removeChild(frame1);
}, 500);
return false;
}

Design :

Above shows Javascript and Desing ... when i click on "Print Doc " Button its calls "PrintDiv123()" js methood ... but problem is as string alignment in the text file which is attched like that it has to print but its printing like one line .....

Why not working on other approach of getting string properly rather than putting too much time on finding client side print functionaliy? It is my suggestion to work on string formatting where you are not getting properly. It is also suggested to post your original problem with sample file, data and code snippet so someone can get it easily and could help you in better way.
