title: printing to windows printer with python or shell command
body: <p>I'm tryin to script an annoying task that involves fetching, handling and printing loads of scanned docs - jpeg or pdf. I don't succeed in accessing the printer from python or from windows shell (which I could script with python subproccess module). I succeeded in printing a text file from the command line with lpr command, but not jpg or pdf.</p>
  
  <p>be glad for any clues about that, including a more extensive win shell reference for printing to printer, a suitable python library I missed in my google search stackoverflow search etc (just one <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9850949/printing-from-python-using-lpr-or-win32">unanswered question</a>)</p>
