Print Window is a Mac utility that comes in handy if you need to generate and print file listing on your computer. You can use this program to create lists of the files you have saved on your Mac, mounted drives or connected network shares.
The application is very intuitive, has an integrated help manual, and supports drag-and-drop actions. After you import the folder you wish to inventory, the program gives you access to several printing settings which can easily be configured even by a beginner Mac user.
You can choose to expand folders at any levels you like, select the preferred font style and size, and include icons in the generated report. Furthermore, the program enables you to pick the type of information to be included in the report, such as name, kind, size, comments, version, etc.
The only thing that bothered me while testing this utility was that it took a while to analyze the folder I imported (1.51GB size). Still, it offered me many useful printing options and was very simple to use.
Hence, I'd say you should give this program a try if you're looking for an easy and quick way to generate file listings on your Mac.
