how to print a pdf file directly to default printer without showing print dialog or option like kiosk

You can do most custom tasks in the Controllers for C# and for JavaScript in html or js files but actual printing to printer itself is not supported. You need to look into other projects for that.

Note: This is still in reference to printing silently. CEF/CefGlue exposes PrintToPDF, Print. These will be exposed to make them obvious.

Is that there are lightweight alternatives of Chromely in .net that support this feature ?

My statement was a bit misleading. I just updated that.

This is what I meant: https://github.com/chromelyapps/Chromely/issues/303.

So what you intend to do will will be done in this method:

       class PrintToPdfCallback : CefPdfPrintCallback
        {
            protected override void OnPdfPrintFinished(string path, bool ok)
            {
                if (ok)
                {
                    // Do the printer work here.
                    // Or other tasks.
                }
            }

            public void Dispose()
            {
            }
        }

We can look into feature exposing printing to PDF.
