Two ways

1) if your DOM is ofTXDocument class then you can use method
printWithFormat(Writer w)(sorry I am not sure of the name but it is
there) avaible in TXDocument
2) See the code in DOMWriter available in samples directory I think

By the way, there does not seem to be any formal way in DOM for 

a) creating an empty DOM 
b) reading from an XML
c) writing out it as again as an XML

Since DOM is "XML in memory" and XML is "serialized DOM" how come the
relationship between the two is not defined at all.
 
SAX of course has a standard way to read parser.parse(InputSource in).
