pip install requirements/requirements-dev.txt

Using Printer class:

from smartprinter.printers import Printer

printer = Printer()
printer.base.echo('Text')
printer.click.echo('Text', show=True, color='green')
printer.smart.echo('Text', show=True, char='*')
printer.pager.echo('Text', show=True)

Using PrintersFactory:

from smartprinter.printers import PrintersFactory

def_printer = PrintersFactory.get_base()
click_printer = PrintersFactory.get_click()
smart_printer = PrintersFactory.get_smart()
pager = PrintersFactory.get_pager()
