description	Print files uploaded to a Slack channel. Supports smart matching: multiple files, filename prefix/keyword filter, file type (pdf/image), and time range ("just now" = "last 5 minutes"). Trigger when the user says things like "print the file from Slack", "print the PDF I just sent to Slack", "print the Slack file", etc.

Strict rules:

• Do not use write/edit tools to create or modify any files
