# wxHtmlEasyPrinting (wx v2.6)

Copy Markdown View Source

This class provides very simple interface to printing architecture.

It allows you to print HTML documents using only a few commands.

Note: Do not create this class on the stack only. You should create an instance on app startup and use this instance for all printing operations. The reason is that this class stores various settings in it.
