The wxPython demo for printing has a function included that is not in
the Widgets documentation. The relevant code from the demo:
self.printData = wx.PrintData()
self.printData.SetPrintMode(wx.PRINT_MODE_PRINTER)
...
What does this do? What other options are available to pass into it?
Thanks,
Mike

Looks like it is currently only used in the old postscript printer back-end, which is only used by default in wx these days if it was built on a system with a very old GTK+ library. SetPrintMode is used to control whether the printout is to go directly to the printer or is streamed to some other destination.
What other options are available to pass into it?
>>> import wx
>>> [pm for pm in dir(wx) if pm.startswith('PRINT_MODE')]
['PRINT_MODE_FILE', 'PRINT_MODE_NONE', 'PRINT_MODE_PREVIEW', 'PRINT_MODE_PRINTER', 'PRINT_MODE_STREAM']
