In MacOS, I'm using python to write PDF Service Workflows, and after processing the incoming PDF (manipulating it with PyObjC Quartz APIs), I want to send it back to the print queue and get it printed without any user effort.
Is it possible to send a Graphics Context or PDFKit data directly to the printer?
You can use the Core Printing APIs. You can use PMPrinterPrintWithProvider()
for the all-in-one approach, or the functions under Print Loop Functions to drive the print loop manually.
I don't know off-hand if those functions are available via the PyObjC bridge.
