Which OS ?
Which compiler ?
What kind of program (DOS / Console / windows-GUI ) ?

What have you tried so far, like for example you can print to the screen, but now you want to add printer output as well?

Or are you stuck at "hello world" ?

Right click on the console window and select all. Press enter to copy everything onto the clipboard. Use your favorite word processor to paste and print.

Mmm, old enough that this might work

FILE *fp = fopen ( "prn:", "w" );
if ( fp != NULL ) {
  fprintf( fp, "Hello world\n\f" );
  fclose( fp );
} else {
  perror( "Couldn't print\n" );
}

Also try the following filenames, if that doesn't work
"lpt:"
"prn"
"lpt"

After each test, check to see whether it created a file with that name in the current directory (if it does, then it's the wrong filename for the printer).
