[Gambas-user] Printing from a module

[Fabien Bodard]

Why the printer is on your form ?


In your module declare a new printer

Drucker = new printer() as "Drucker"

You must declare the printer where you use it.

There is another way but i think this one is the most simpler. Andif i
understand well you don't need the printer object on the form
