Recommended app-side wrapper

Keep app code behind a facade such as src/lib/certificatePrint.ts:

import { NativePrint } from '@robusthomes/capacitor-native-print';

export const openCertificatePrint = async (jobName: string) => {
  const availability = await NativePrint.isAvailable();
  if (!availability.available) {
    throw new Error(availability.reason || 'Printing is unavailable.');
  }

  return NativePrint.printCurrentPage({ jobName });
};
