If interactive is t
then print-dialog is called to select the printer to use. If interactive is nil
then printer is used unless it is nil
in which case the current-printer is used. The default value of interactive is t
and the default value of printer is nil
.
The values of jobname and tab-spacing are passed to print-text, which is used to actually do the printing. The default value of tab-spacing is 8 and the default value of jobname is "Text".
