The ajax client doesn't support the print option. The qlikview server has no knowledge of your locally installed printers. You will have to use your browsers print functionality if you want a print of the sheet.

Install a utility like CutePDF which will create a virtual printer that will output pdf files. You can then let your browser print to that new printer. Or simply make a screenshot and save it as an image file.

and would the end user be able to create the pdf on their machines or they also need to install the utility?

The end user would have to install the utility (or have it installed for her/him). That's where the printing needs to be done.
