Does anybody know a solution/product to print out from Zope structured documents like invoices, open-balances, cash-flow reports ... .In more general the tool I'm looking for should be able to build documents (even multipage) with report-headers and -footers and page-headers and -footers, running sums, sorts ... . These documents should be send immediately to the printer (not displayed in the browser and waiting for the user to hit "print"). The source of data is a MySQL database.

Maybe, "reportLab" can help you.

It will not perform out of the box what you want but
you can use it to automatically create PDF documents that
you can then print.
