Hello,
  There are different ways to do this.

One way is to close the file Discriptor 1, and then issue a open system
call with the filename as the one where the output has to be sent, the open
system call will us the smallest fd avilable, [i.e. 1]. There by any printf
command will send the output to the file which has been opened.

-Thanks,
Syed Khaleelulla.
