PrintTicket.Stapling Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value indicating whether, and where, a printer staples multiple pages.

public:
 property Nullable<System::Printing::Stapling> Stapling { Nullable<System::Printing::Stapling> get(); void set(Nullable<System::Printing::Stapling> value); };
public System.Printing.Stapling? Stapling { get; set; }
member this.Stapling : Nullable<System.Printing.Stapling> with get, set
Public Property Stapling As Nullable(Of Stapling)

Property Value

A Stapling value specifying how a printer staples the output.

Exceptions

Calling code has attempted to set the property to a value that is not in the Stapling enumeration.

Examples

The following example shows how to use this property when testing a printer's capabilities and configuring a print job to take advantage of them.

Remarks

For example, a printer can place two staples on the left edge of a sheet of paper, or one staple in the upper left corner.

A null value for this property means that this feature setting is not specified. Also, when the value is null, the XML versions of the PrintTicket (see SaveTo and GetXmlStream) will not contain any markup for this feature.

This property corresponds to the Print Schema's JobStapleAllDocuments keyword, not the DocumentStaple keyword.

You can test for the options that the printer supports by using the StaplingCapability property.
