Launch printer from the app

I am working on a UWP project and I am trying to print an image from my app. I have tried using the printing sample from microsoft but it's utterly confusing and it's stuck on an error I don't have the time or the patience to solve. Is there a way to launch printer programmatically as if I right clicked the item and chose print?

Diederik Krols did a very detailed blog post about printing, it's for WinRT but should mostly work for UWP too ( except for margins and layout because that has changed in Win10 UWP )

So take a look at this sample http://blogs.u2u.be/diederik/post/2013/01/20/Printing-from-MVVM-XAML-Windows-8-Store-apps.aspx

It's still a lot of work though...
