PrHandle became obsolete with Carbon. AFAIK it is useless.

dim as PMResolution pmRes

def lprint
if prcancel then end

pmRes.hRes = 150
pmRes.vRes = 150
fn PMSetResolution( gFBPageFormat, @pmRes )

route _toPrinter
for x = 20 to 40 step 2
MoveTo( x, 20 ) : LineTo( x, 120 )
next
close lprint
route _toScreen
