\section{Printing under Unix (GTK+)}\label{unixprinting}
Printing under Unix has always been a cause of problems as Unix
with version 2.5.4, the GTK+ port of wxWidgets can make use of
these libraries if wxWidgets is configured accordingly and if the
libraries are present. You need to configure wxWidgets with the
-{\it configure --with-gnomeprint} switch and you application will

then search for the GNOME print libraries at runtime. If they
are found, printing will be done through these, otherwise the
application will fall back to the old PostScript printing code.
to be installed in order to run (there will be no dependency on
these libraries).
-It is expected that the printing code that is currently implemented
-in the GNOME print libraries will be moved into GTK+ later.
+In version GTK+ 2.10, support for printing has been added to GTK+
+itself. Beginning with version wxWidgets 2.9.X, the GTK+ port of
+wxWidgets can make use of this feature
+if wxWidgets is configured accordingly and if the GTK+ version is >= 2.10.
+You need to configure wxWidgets with the {\it configure --with-gtkprint}
+switch and your application will then search for the GTK+ print support
+at runtime. If it is found, printing will be done through GTK+, otherwise the
+application will fall back to GNOME printing support if it is available or,
+if it isn't, to the old PostScript printing code.
+Note that the application will not require a GTK+ version >= 2.10
+to be installed in order to run (there will be no dependency on
+this version).
