Hi all,

I know how to output using the awt PrintJob, but how do I go about
printing normal text - I had tried to output to a file then exec and
copy it to lpt1: (I know is not platform dependent but I am getting
desperate in trying to find how.  The application I am writing crucially
needs printing.
Any help or pointer to sources of help would be gratefully received.

Regards

Tim
