I just want to load a txt file and then send a content to the printer
without loading it to the JTextArea for example. So only from file to the
printer !!

thanks

Search for the Java Print Service API. It is not related to gui. There
is also a good but complicated library at ASF, the "apache FOP".

If you find something else intresting, please submit it here. I am
interested too.

Java provides three API for printing. Two ones introduced prior to 1.4 print
slowly generating big spool files.
Basically, you will need to paint your text on a printer canvas.
