Examples
The following code example requires that you have created an instance of the PrintDocument class that is named myPrintDocument
. The example creates a new instance of the PrintController class, assigns it to the PrintController property of myPrintDocument
, and prints the document.
Use the System.Drawing.Printing and System.Windows.Forms namespaces for this example.
public:
void myPrint()
{
if ( useMyPrintController == true )
{
myPrintDocument->PrintController =
gcnew myControllerImplementation;
if ( wantsStatusDialog == true )
{
myPrintDocument->PrintController =
gcnew PrintControllerWithStatusDialog(
myPrintDocument->PrintController );
}
}
myPrintDocument->Print();
}
public void myPrint()
{
if (useMyPrintController == true)
{
myPrintDocument.PrintController =
new myControllerImplementation();
if (wantsStatusDialog == true)
{
myPrintDocument.PrintController =
new PrintControllerWithStatusDialog
(myPrintDocument.PrintController);
}
}
myPrintDocument.Print();
}
Public Sub myPrint()
If useMyPrintController = True Then
myPrintDocument.PrintController = New myControllerImplementation()
If wantsStatusDialog = True Then
myPrintDocument.PrintController = _
New PrintControllerWithStatusDialog( _
myPrintDocument.PrintController)
End If
End If
myPrintDocument.Print()
End Sub
Remarks
A print controller guides the printing process in several ways. For example, to print a document, you need to convert it to a Graphics object. A PrintController specifies where to draw the graphic in an image for a print preview or on a printer to actually print the document. A print controller can also specify whether to print a document immediately, or wait a specified interval.
