Following scripts makes logs first, and then can be printed. What should be the way I can print from the frame directly assuming I have printer in place?

import wx
import os.path


class MainWindow(wx.Frame):

        super(MainWindow, self).__init__(None, size=(400,200))

            bar. '''

Thanks in advance.
