HOW CAN I SEND A TEXTSTREAM TO PRINTER W/O USING DC COMMANDS !!!

	I want to use the PRINT MANAGER and be able to dump a text
	file with CR's and LF's to a printer - just to print text.

	BUT, I don't want to use TextOut(hPR,x,y...) and I don't want
	to simply open the port and dump the text.

	For my project it is important that I use the print manager and
	still avoid the device context commands that do not seem
	necessary since I already have a properly formatted ASCII text
	file.

	Any help would be greatly appreciated.

	Thanks...Regards |(8>
