Chapter 3 - Finder Commands / Command Definitions

Print

A Print command is a request to print one or more objects. The Finder version of the Print command is identical to the standard version described in the AppleScript Language Guide.

SYNTAX

print referenceToObject

PARAMETER

referenceToObject

A reference to the object or objects to print--typically files
or containers--or a list of references.
Class: Reference or list of references

RESULT

Reference to the printed object or a list of references.

EXAMPLE

tell application "Finder" to print file "Addresses" of startup disk

NOTES

The statement print items in referenceToContainer (where referenceToContainer is a reference to any container) won't compile. Instead,
use the statement print every item of referenceToContainer.
