I don\'t even know if this is possible and I highly doubt it is, but if you can, can you please tell me how? I just want to know how to print some text from a printer.

What you can do is write to a file and then you can use Desktop class to print it. for more infomation on desktop class go here

here is the program


import java.awt.Desktop;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;


public class abc {


    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{

        BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("1.txt"));
        out.write("Hello this is a test");
        out.flush();
        out.close();

        File ff = new File("1.txt");

        Desktop desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
      desktop.print(ff);

}

}
