Methods

.. method:: __init__(printData)

   Constructor. Pass a `wx.PrintData <wx.PrintData.html>`_ object with information necessary for setting up a suitable printer 
   device context. 

   This is the recommended way to construct a `wx.PrinterDC`. Make sure you specify a reference to a `wx.PrintData` object, 
   not a pointer -- you may not even get a warning if you pass a pointer instead.

   **Parameters:**

   * `printData` (`wx.PrintData <wx.PrintData.html>`_)

   **Returns:**

   `wx.PrinterDC <wx.PrinterDC.html>`_
