Outside of Python, you can use simple OS facilities to capture the  
drawing, paste in a file, then print or do whatever else you want  
(inside a python, it is too dark to see any graphics - to paraphrase  
Groucho Marx :-). How exactly you create and paste this the drawing  
will depend on your particular system: Windows, Macintosh,  Linux, etc.

In Windows, for example, perform the following steps.

* Click on the title bar of the drawing widow to make it the active window.
* Use Alt + Print Screen to copy the window onto the clipboard. The  
above step will have no visible effect to you.
* Start any application that can handle graphics, such as the Paint program.
* Use Edit -> Paste to paste the window copied from the clipboard onto  
an empty document.
* Print the document.

If you have no access to Paint, you can use a word processor, such as  
Microsoft Office Word or Open Office Writer.
