finding a way of sending info to the printer in a C# program

[Brian]

I'm trying to find a way writing a C# program that will send information to
the printer.
Is there some command that does this in the C# language?
I did some research on the internet with no luck.
I have code for a program that lists the filenames in a folder but I want
to send this information to the printer.

If it is win forms then start here:

Thanks Arne.
After looking at the link there seems to be a lot of setting for the
printer. I was hoping it would be something simple such as LPrint Data.
Like in the days when people used BASIC as a programming language.

Hello,

today printers are not so simple, they can print more than one font
only, they can print graphics. All these settings are necessary to use
all features.

The output from a printer also looks very different today compared
to back then.

Maybe there is a correlation!
