How to print plain text using Monodevelop and C#?

Question

I have some text displayed in a TextView which I want to print. I've been googling for 2 whole hours now. If anyone could help me out with this, you'd really make my day. Thanks!

Here's a very simple example (tested on a Windows machine):

PrintDocument doc = new PrintDocument();
var printFont = new Font("Arial", 10);
doc.PrintPage += (s, ev) => {
        ev.Graphics.DrawString("Your text goes here",
                                printFont, 
                                Brushes.Black, 
                                ev.MarginBounds.Left,
                                ev.MarginBounds.Top);
        HasMorePages = false;
    };
doc.Print();

You'll have to add a reference to System.Drawing and these two using statements :

using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Printing;
