There's one more thing. WebView loads requests asynchronously, so you need to 
block while it is loading the request and laying out the page while taking some 
time out to run the run loop. So do something like this:

while ([myWebView isLoading])
{
        NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
        
        [myWebView setNeedsDisplay:NO];
        [NSApp nextEventMatchingMask:NSAnyEventMask untilDate:[NSDate 
dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:1.0] inMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode dequeue:YES];
        [pool drain];
}
[webView setNeedsDisplay:YES];

When this loop is done, any print operation you perform on the web view ought 
to work.
