Hey all!

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? I'm trying to print the
image/bitmap of my main window.

Here is my (undoubtably stupid) method...

    /* mainDC is obtained with GetDC()    */
    /* printDC is obtained via PrintDlg() */

    /* error checking deleted for clarity */

    Escape(printDC, STARTDOC, 6, "My App", NULL);
    BitBlt(printDC, 0, 0, 1000, 1000, mainDC, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
    Escape(printDC, NEWFRAME, 0, NULL, NULL);
    Escape(printDC, ENDDOC, 0, NULL, NULL);

When my code executes, all I get is a page ejected from the printer (which
is a Canon BJ10E). What am I leaving out in my quick and dirty method?

Thanks,

john
