* Supports resizing to predefined sizes (A4 Landscape & Portrait) as well as custom sizes
* Supports saving to png, as well as printing
* Compatible with both Leaflet v1+ and 0.7

| position | [Leaflet control position](http://leafletjs.com/reference-1.1.0.html#controls) | 'topleft' | Positions the print button |
| sizeModes | array | `Current` | Options available include `Current`, `A4Portrait`, `A4Landscape` or a [custom size object](#custom-print-sizes) |
