How do I bring both together so the pic gets printed on the standard printer?
I looked at a lot of printer stuff with complicated setting - my guess: shouldn't be done with long code pages and printer/doc settings....
Hmm, seems I'm keeping you busy, will try to not post any stupid too basic stuff.....
Any help apreciated. Klaus

You should read this (https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Using_the_printer). If I had a printer I would create a small demo but unfortunately I haven't anymore.

Hi Mr. Zwerg, thanks fo far. Already have this link looked at. But haven't yet figured out how to implement it as it is not dealing with PrintDialog.
I need a simple solution, as nothing else will be printed in the app as .png of a small size.
The other Load and Safe file Dialogs are pretty easy to use so I would expect not to fumble around with paper size, margins .... The components of the PrintDialog seam to not have a print.image or somethiong like this...... or using the OS provided printer settings...
Will poke around and see what works....

Here is a small project for you, it should work (I tested on Windows).
