  Many thanks for a tip.
  There really is a demo file printing.c, which gives some idea about
  printing concept. But it represents a high level api
  GtkPrintOperation, which is based on a special dialog form, so
  creation of print context is hidden.
  I look for a way to define the printer, print context, etc. manually
  from the application code as it was possible with the gnomeprint
  library for
  1) to avoid extra, unnecessary dialog boxes and appropriate
  keyboard/mouse actions of the user;
  2) to be possible to print from a console application.
