Printing out a graphics screen c++ metro direct2d

Question

Is it possible to print a graphics screen to a printer in metro c++ ?

I have rendered an image now I want to print it out.

I had a look at the printing samples and none of these address what I am trying to do.

Hi,

How do you make the screen into a image?
Is your Windows store app based on XAML or Direct X?

Best regards,

I am using direct2d to render the graphics. It is a Metro app in c++.

Answer 3

I am trying to use the SimpleTextRenderer c++ example as a basis for my program.

I just want to print out the contents of the screen to the printer.

I don't need anything fancy just a basic print function.

The printing samples provided by Microsoft wont fit in with my program. I just end up with lots of compile errors.

Any help would be appreciated.
