Does wxWidgets offer the capacity to evoke a print manager layer which will 
offer the user
- to print via a currently-selected or last-used or default printer
- to select from options in the print output from the current job
- to make adjustments settings that could be memorized for re-use by GNUmed 
later?

If wxWidgets will *not* be involved, how will output get to the printer or into 
a "print as PDF" alternative?

Also, would everything that prints be the result of a query, or would there be 
some stuff that would be printed from memory variables, or GNUmed user 
configurational file content, or from the user's system for example current 
date and time?
