To paper? Never. To PDF? I've printed to pdf to get nice looking formatted code for presentations.

I see print as more a brute force bazooka feature to get nice vector graphics out of apps.

IIRC there's a Sublime plugin (obviously) that supports copy pasting formatted code with syntax highlighting. I definitely remember using it at university. Printing to PDF to get syntax highlighting just sounds like an unnecessary step in between.

What I do:

* c/p in a gist

* when looking at the gist, print the page in your browser

* save to PDF
