When you call the function

'M-x hfyview-buffer RET'

then the contents of the buffer are sent to your web browser. And with

'M-x hfyview-region RET'

you can send the contents of the marked region. After that you can
actually print in your browser.

This printing method has nothing to do with the Emacs' own printing
functions. BTW: It's fully integrated in Lennart Borgman's
EmacsW32-Emacs.
