The simplest way to print something in Linux would be to load it into an existing application and use it's print function - it allready has the code to do that.

I'm less concerned about that attitude than I am the prevailing one among beginners, that the way to learn is to ask someone to do all of your work for you. What is going on in our schools?

I meant, that you just used an existing program lpr.
While you were asking for, how to do it using C++.

Now if you want it C++ way, you can use system() function.
I hope Google will tell you more.

well tell me the library that uses this..then let everything else on me ........ sakes

Bravo, medievalelks, bravo.

heck with schools
