On the strict wxPython front, I can't help you, but I might be able to offer some help. Depends a little bit on how much you're tied to wxPython and how much you need to be cross-platform. Essentially, if you're on Windows (and have no need to run on anything else) then consider some of the solutions here: http://tgolden.sc.sabren.com/python/win32_how_do_i/print.html If you're on Unix / whatever with no need to do anything else, then I'm sure there are straightforward ways to push stuff to a printer. (Something using lpr he thinks, hoping someone with real knowledge can chip in). If you *really* want to use wxPython for cross-platform needs, or just because you think it's cleaner, then try on the wxPython lists if you haven't already.
