Very cool idea Haikal! Certainly seems the best option for text printing,
I'm going to try it one day.

My approach to printing oodles of multiline text is to let the browser
do it:
* When the print button is pressed, save the contents of the text
field to a Local Shared Object
* Open up an empty HTML page, which has as invisible flash movie
which can then:
o Read that shared object.
o Pass the data that needs to be printed to a JS function
which...
o ...uses DOM to inject that data onto the page.
Simple, and quite elegant, if I say so my self. I've done this before
for arrays of objects, and it has worked a treat. The Flash/Javascript
bridge comes in handy here as well.
