Detailed Description
Option A
A new action "Printer" will be available in some activities.
Option B
A new action "Export to PDF" will be available in some activities. In the journal the user could select an entry and send it to print (if the action "Send to print" has sense according to the activity).
In both options the user could configure some options (paper for example). Maybe a new option "Printer Configuration" will be necessary.
Benefit to Sugar
Users will be able to print this jobs. In the classroom will be more common the use of a network printer and a backend for manage the print jobs. The use of a printer connected directly to the computer will be more common in the houses.
Scope
The activities in which print action has sense should add an option to export to pdf or print directly to the printer. The journal should be modify to add a "Send to Print" option. A new option "Configure Printer" will be necesary to configure the printer in the control panel.
