Hey I was wondering if it was possible to send the contents of say an array to a printer. I've searched but it seems like all I've found is printing the page one pixel at a time, through coordinates, stuff like that. I was wondering if there is an easier way to do this, like send the data (just a text file) all at once to a printer.
Well questions such as
- Your OS
- Your compiler
- Your application type (console, GUI)
- Your printer
- Where it's plugged in
spring to mind.
A windows GUI using the standard windows print API solves a lot of the lower level issues.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
ok the OS would be Linux Ubuntu specifically
the compiler g++
the application type console is fine
the printer it'd actually be a couple are networked.
I guess I was thinking the printers could be treated like files, cause its linux, I'm guessing I was wrong
