Ok, firstly (in my experience at least) the words "pretty printer" refer
to a program which will format source code (i.e., indent or "pretty
print" it) automatically and from what you say here I'm guessing what
you want is a program that will generate syntax highlighted printed
source code.  If that's what you want then my recommendation is a2ps
(anything to postscript) which will do syntax highlighting for most
languages as well as the ability to control the a whole host of
different aspects of the layout.

Hope this helps,

Christian.
