To make things a little different, I *might* print to one of those POS
type printers (USB) not a regular printer.
Pointers? Which classes do I need to use?
GTK+ itself doesn't currently offer any printing support, so the
question doesn't really involve GTK+ directly. You need to either
1) Open the printer device (e.g. /dev/usb/lp0) and write data to it.
2) Open a pipe to the printer spooler (e.g. lpr -P queuename)
and then write the job data and close the connection.
Thanks for clearing this up.
Why, you could use gnomeprint and gnomeprintui. There are a lot of
formatting abilities.
