Yeah - sorry, my point is, you have no way of knowing what action the user took with the print dialog. And you cannot do anything until that dialog is closed (whether they printed or not.).

It's strange :
- my code works on Mozilla, Crazy Browser (which use IE API) but no on IE  - If i set the code in the OnLoad method it works fine, but as I use template,... i must put the code on the bottom of the file.. May be an IE 6 bug

The problem is that unlike Firefox which stops processing the javascript until the print dialog is finished, IE continues to process the rest of the javascript. So when it goes to close the window it can't because of the modal popup (the print dialog). The solution I've come up with is to close the window when it gets focused, which will happen when the print dialog is closed.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.print();
window.onfocus = function() { window.close(); }
</script>
