Detailed Description

The PySide.QtGui.QPrinterInfo class gives access to information about existing printers.

Use the static functions to generate a list of PySide.QtGui.QPrinterInfo objects. Each PySide.QtGui.QPrinterInfo object in the list represents a single printer and can be queried for name, supported paper sizes, and whether or not it is the default printer.
