for the very reason that I don't know that this existed, and there may be other things I can use that I'm missing...
TIA, Jacob

The win32print module (in Matt Hammond's windows modules) may help. eg:
pid = win32print.OpenPrinter(win32print.GetDefaultPrinter()) win32print.StartDocPrinter(pid, 1, ('My print job', None, 'raw')) win32print.WritePrinter(pid, s) win32print.EndDocPrinter(pid) win32print.ClosePrinter(pid)
When I did this, I was printing to a postscript printer, and I wasn't printing anything that required complex layout. So I generated the postscript code myself, and then just sent it straight to the printer...
