Printing with gedit

Printing with gedit requires that you have connected and configured your printer. If you have not done this, please consult the printing help documentation for your desktop environment.

gedit allows you to both print output to a file, as well as printing output to paper. Prior to printing your document, you can also preview how the printed document will look by using the Print Preview feature.
