Re: [fpc-pascal] New to FPC: Printer problems

First include the package Printers4Lazarus as a requirement.

Then you can write something like this:

program printtest;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

uses
  Interfaces, // this includes the LCL widgetset
  Classes,
  Forms,
  Printer4Lazarus,
  Printers,
  PrintersDlgs;

var
  PaperWorkRect: TRect;
  PrintDlg: TPrintDialog;
begin
  Application.Initialize;

  PrintDlg := TPrintDialog.Create(nil);
  try
    PrintDlg.MinPage := 1;
    PrintDlg.MaxPage := 1;
    if PrintDlg.Execute then
    begin
      PaperWorkRect := Printer.PaperSize.PaperRect.WorkRect;
      Printer.BeginDoc;
      Printer.Canvas.TextOut(PaperWorkRect.Left, PaperWorkRect.Top, 'TextOut');
      Printer.EndDoc;
    end;
  finally
    PrintDlg.Free;
  end;
end.
