How to hide or modify header from window.print()?

I created a view which look like a PDF document. Now I want to print it using window.print(), but when I run this code it generates header and footer.

window.print()

I change the footer using this code:

let footer = "Nr"+this.contractForm.contract_number+this.datePipe.transform(this.contractForm.date, 'd.MM.yyyy');

let footer = "Nr"+this.contractForm.contract_number+this.datePipe.transform(this.contractForm.date, 'd.MM.yyyy');

window.history.pushState("object or string", "Title", footer.replace("http://", ""));

window.history.pushState("object or string", "Title", footer.replace("http://", ""));

I want to remove header (it generates date and (I think) title).

I tried to use remove header and footer from window print

And many similar solutions.

Summarizing, I want to remove header from generated file.

@media print

You can use CSS rules for this (or SCSS, if you wish).

Here is an example where I hide the .hideme class. You can click the print button to see it in action.

.hideme

print

.hideme
border: 5px solid black;
height: 100px;


.showme
border: 5px dotted black;
height: 100px;


@media print
.hideme
display: none;



<div class="hideme">
Will be hidden
</div>

<div class="showme">
Will be shown
</div>

<button onclick="print()">
Print
</button>

I've also created an example in StackBlitz using SCSS and Angular if you want to see that in action.
