yii2 basic printing a page in pdf

please help. Hallo all, Am on verge of finishing a project created using yii2 basic. my problem is, I want to print a using with pdf as its output. I have tried yii2 mpdf and yii2-pdf without any success. I want to place the print button in the index.php of a view file. here's is my code snippet located at index view file.

<?= Html::a('<i class="fa glyphicon glyphicon-hand-up"></i>Property report',['/propertydetails/report'],
        [
         'class'=>'btn btn-danger',
         'target'=> '_blank',
         'data-toggle'=>'tooltip',
         'title'=>'Generate the pdf']); ?>

And here's my controller

use kartik\mpdf\Pdf;

//function for reports
public function actionReport()
{
    //get your html raw content without layouts
   // $content = $this->renderPartial('view');
    //set up the kartik\mpdf\Pdf component
    $pdf = new Pdf([
        'content'=>$this->renderPartial('view'),
        'mode'=> Pdf::MODE_CORE,
        'format'=> Pdf::FORMAT_A4,
        'orientation'=>Pdf::ORIENT_POTRAIT,
        'destination'=> Pdf::DEST_BROWSER,
        'cssFile' => '@vendor/kartik-v/yii2-mpdf/assets/kv-mpdf-bootstrap.min.css',
        'cssInline'=> '.kv-heading-1{font-size:18px}',
        'options'=> ['title'=> 'Paki Properties Reports'],
        'methods'=> [
               'setHeader'=>['Generated on: '.date("r")],
               'setFooter'=>['|page {PAGENO}|'],
                ]
        ]);
    return $pdf->render();
}

when I click the button I get this error

In your controller there isn't the model. You must add this information eg:

$content = $this->renderPartial('_mpdf_report_scheda',  [
     'model' => $model,

     'mode'=> Pdf::MODE_CORE,
     'format'=> Pdf::FORMAT_A4,
     'orientation'=>Pdf::ORIENT_POTRAIT,
     'destination'=> Pdf::DEST_BROWSER,
     .....
           ]);
