If the plot is inserted into the worksheet, see Printing Your Maple Session. If the Maple plot is in a separate window, make the window active by bringing it to the foreground, position the mouse cursor over the word File in the main Maple window, and click the mouse button. This brings up a second menu; from this, click on the word Print, and then choose how you want the plot printed (for example, Postscript). A new window will appear with a default file name, which you can backspace over and retype to change if you like. Then click on Print at the bottom of the Printer Setup window. This will create a file in your home directory (or in the directory you specified), and you may now print the file by typing the following command from Maple; please note the BACK quotes!
system(`lpr filename`);
or by entering the following command from a UNIX prompt:
lpr filename
where filename is the filename you saved with the Print command mentioned above.
The plot will be printed on the nearest PostScript printer, usually the printer in a workstation lab.
