Well, what have you tried thus far? Have you done a search on CPAN for printers? That will show you immediately, modules for interfacing with printers. You may want to take a look at one or more of them and see if they suit your needs.

Regards,

Jeff

Hi; I am writing my first python program and would like to know how to change stdout to refer to my default printer or any other printer on my network. The other question is, Is there an API set of classes that allow me to interact with network devices. In other words, if I have a path and filename inside of a string variable in python, how do I send the file to the printer?? Thanks in advance

I've got a dot matrix printer that I need to print a line at a time to. This is being used for an audit log on an application and every event that occurs needs to print out right as it occurs. I've previously had this working well in a serial communication method where I talk directly to the printer using control codes and what not. However, it seems that the higher ups want to be able to use a network printer or other Windows-configured...
