If you can manage to read the pdf in Matlab and make it your current figure, you can actually use the print function. See this part of the doc. You'll need the name of your printer as reported by the findprinters function, which doesn't seem to have a doc (although it does have a help, so you can still type doc findprinters and get some information).

If you can't (or don't want to) read in into Matlab, the easiest way is to find a program that has a command line interface and use the system function to print the document.
