How can i print the contents of a div along with its styling ?

I am making a small website which sells products online.

The customers whose payment is confirmed they are provided with an invoice online. I want a functionality that when he clicks on print button only invoice along with its styling gets printed.

Also there can be multiple invoices on a single page.

I want to print each invoice separately.

I don't know exactly what you're asking, but maybe @media print is something for you?

If I understand clearly what you want I would simply do that.

<div class="content">

   <p class="styles">

          <?php  echo "your content in php here"; ?>

          // or maybe you could display your content if this one is put previously inside an associative array.

         <?php echo NameOfArray["content"];?>  

  </p>

</div>
