Leopard Sample Code: Printing
Carbon is a set of C APIs that take advantage of new features and enhancements of Mac OS X, including protected memory, preemptive multitasking and dynamic resource allocation, as well as the Aqua interface. The Carbon printing APIs are a collection of system software functions that an application can use to print to any type of supported printer.
