What do you mean by "print from your C program"?  Send
output to the screen?

   printf("Hello world!\n");

Or do you mean how to print an image by sending it to
the printer?

   system("lpr foo.jpg");

or

   popen("lpr foo.jpg", "r");

All of the above are "crude", and depending on what you
are actually doing will need a great deal of refinement.
