Sorry, I don’t think I have time to do that.
I wanted to revisit this issue again. m-parashar managed to compile Emacs with Imagemagick support. This is his build: emax64 (https://ntemacs.sourceforge.io/). Do you think you might be able to add Imagemagick support in your next release?
I've studied the source code. The current implementation does not work for these reasons: 1. it tries to create a temporary file in C:\ 2. it uses print.exe to send data to a printer, but print.exe only works with LPT and COM printers, so no network or USB support. I've made a patch which changes the code so that WritePrinter() WinAP function is used to send data to the printer. It was tested successfully on these models: HP LaserJet 4050N - raw text and PostScript printing work. HP DeskJet 5740...
With your printer, it may work, but I haven’t tried.
After several years of struggle, I found it very difficult to use printing function in Emacs under MS-Windows. However, I made printing to PDF possible. It is very tricky and requires Adobe Acrobat, Ghostscript, and GSview 5.0 (http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/gsview/get50.htm). A possible customization would be: Install Acrobat and use Adobe PDF (the virtual printer) as the default printer. Make sure it works. Install Ghostscript and GSview 5.0. Start Emacs with “-Q”. Eval (setq-default ps-lpr-command...
