DESCRIPTION

-       This  function  uses the mc5p or mc4 and mc5 capabilities,
-       if they are present, to  ship  given  data  to  a  printer
-       attached to the terminal.
 
-       Note  that  the mcprint code has no way to do flow control
-       with the printer or to know how  much  buffering  it  has.
-       Your  application  is  responsible for keeping the rate of
-       writes to the printer below its continuous throughput rate
-       (typically  about  half  of its nominal cps rating).  Dot-
-       matrix printers and 6-page-per-minute lasers can typically
-       handle  80cps,  so a good conservative rule of thumb is to
-       sleep for a second after shipping each 80-character  line.

RETURN VALUE

-       The  mcprint  function  returns ERR if the write operation
-       aborted for some reason.  In this case, errno will contain
-       either  an  error  associated  with write(2) or one of the
-       following:

PORTABILITY

-       The mcprint call was designed for ncurses(3x), and is  not
-       found in SVr4 curses, 4.4BSD curses, or any other previous
-       version of curses.
