There is no print API in the Office.JS library. You can get the file as a blob of various formats with the getFileAsyc API. I'll ask the product team if they know how that blob can be printed and update this answer if I find out anything.

UPDATE: You cannot send the document to a locally installed printer or to a shared printer on the user's LAN from within the Office Add-in. You can send the blob to an online printing service, such as FedEx, or a custom service created on the user's corp network.
