revPrintField will do what you want. It allows you to print a formatted field and optional parameters allow setting headers & footers. Use revShowPrintDialog first to allow the user to specify page setup and set the printMargins to control them. revPrintText is also useful but I think revPrintField will do exactly what you want.

I often find it useful to assemble what I want to print into a hidden field, format it as required, then use revPrintField.

I want to print a field. I don't seem to be able to "print a field" or any
configuration thereof (my HC background), documentation stating that I can
print a card(s) or a stack(s). Do I have to make the field the size of the
card that I want to print without any other objects? Hide objects before I
print? A scrolling field only prints the "visible" field in the card
screen when "print card" is evoked.

I want to append different field contents into a single print container,
hopefully with style/font/alignment attached, and print that container with
assigned printmargins.

Suggestions appreciated.

Nice would be to print a "watermark" behind this text (self-generated
watermark).
