Examples

The following code example sets a document's page orientation to landscape, and prints the document. The example makes three assumptions: that a variable named filePath has been set to the path of the file to print; that a method named pd_PrintPage, which handles the PrintPage event, has been defined; and that a variable named printer has been set to the printer's name.

Use the System.Drawing, System.Drawing.Printing, and System.IO namespaces for this example.

public:
   void Printing()
   {
      try
      {
         streamToPrint = gcnew StreamReader( filePath );
         try
         {
            printFont = gcnew System::Drawing::Font( "Arial",10 );
            PrintDocument^ pd = gcnew PrintDocument;
            pd->PrintPage += gcnew PrintPageEventHandler(
               this, &Form1::pd_PrintPage );
            pd->PrinterSettings->PrinterName = printer;
            // Set the page orientation to landscape.
            pd->DefaultPageSettings->Landscape = true;
            pd->Print();
         }
         finally
         {
            streamToPrint->Close();
         }
      }
      catch ( Exception^ ex ) 
      {
         MessageBox::Show( ex->Message );
      }
   }

public void Printing()
{
   try
   {
      streamToPrint = new StreamReader (filePath);
      try
      {
         printFont = new Font("Arial", 10);
         PrintDocument pd = new PrintDocument(); 
         pd.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(pd_PrintPage);
         pd.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = printer;
         // Set the page orientation to landscape.
         pd.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = true;
         pd.Print();
      } 
      finally
      {
         streamToPrint.Close() ;
      }
   } 
   catch(Exception ex)
   { 
      MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
   }
}

Public Sub Printing()
    Try
        streamToPrint = New StreamReader(filePath)
        Try
            printFont = New Font("Arial", 10)
            Dim pd As New PrintDocument()
            AddHandler pd.PrintPage, AddressOf pd_PrintPage
            pd.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = printer
            ' Set the page orientation to landscape.
            pd.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = True
            pd.Print()
        Finally
            streamToPrint.Close()
        End Try
    Catch ex As Exception
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
    End Try
End Sub

Remarks

You can specify several default page settings through the DefaultPageSettings property. For example, the PageSettings.Color property specifies whether the page prints in color, the PageSettings.Landscape property specifies landscape or portrait orientation, and the PageSettings.Margins property specifies the margins of the page.

To specify settings on a page-by-page basis, handle the PrintPage or QueryPageSettings event and modify the PageSettings argument included in the PrintPageEventArgs or QueryPageSettingsEventArgs, respectively.

Note

After printing has started, changes to page settings through the DefaultPageSettings property will not affect pages being printed.
