Does anyone know of a library/module that will allow access to a printer attached to an OSX device? I'm not talking about just dumping some raw text, I need to be able to set font parameters and just as important, I must be able to draw lines. I can do this under Windows/Python using the PyWin32 library.
Got a tip for us?

Here's what I tried, which took less than one minute:
1. I selected the thread title: Printing with Python.
2. I did a right-click and chose "Search with Google".
3. On the first page of results was this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1364595/printing-to-a-usb-printer-with-python-on-a-mac
4. In the example, it mentions printing a PDF file. So the next step was googling: python pdf library
