Printing How?

Hi all I create a file by using CStdioFile. I want to sent this file to Printer, which function should i use? Thanks

1. Use ShellExecute()

   ShellExecute(m\_hWnd, "print", "MyFile.txt", NULL, NULL, SW\_HIDE);
   

   This will execute the program associated with the .txt extension and tell it to print the file.

2. Use system()

   system("copy "MyFile.txt" lpt1:");
   

   This will send the file to the printer using the DOS copy command. Note that the last (partial) page will probably not be printed, unless you send a formfeed.

3. Use MFC's doc/view printing architecture. See the Printing section here on CP for more details.
