Detailed DescriptionThe QPrintEngine class defines an interface for how QPrinter interacts with a given printing subsystem. The common case when creating your own print engine is to derive from both QPaintEngine and QPrintEngine. Various properties of a print engine are given with property() and set with setProperty(). See also QPaintEngine. Member Type Documentation
