Class
GtkPrinter
Description [src]
final class Gtk.Printer : GObject.Object {
/* No available fields */
}A GtkPrinter object represents a printer.
You only need to deal directly with printers if you use the
non-portable GtkPrintUnixDialog API.
A GtkPrinter allows to get status information about the printer,
such as its description, its location, the number of queued jobs,
etc. Most importantly, a GtkPrinter object can be used to create
a GtkPrintJob object, which lets you print to the printer.
