PrintDocument Class

Definition

Defines a reusable object that sends output to a printer, when printing from a Windows Forms application.

public ref class PrintDocument : System::ComponentModel::Component
public class PrintDocument : System.ComponentModel.Component
type PrintDocument = class
    inherit Component
Public Class PrintDocument
Inherits Component
Inheritance

Examples

The following code example prints the file named C:\My Documents\MyFile.txt on the default printer. To run the example, create a new Windows Forms project and paste the example code into the form, replacing the file contents. For C#, you will need to delete the Form1.Designer.cs file. Also, change the path to the file you want to print.

Note

The example requires that each line fits within the page width.

Remarks

Typically, you create an instance of the PrintDocument class, set properties such as the DocumentName and PrinterSettings, and call the Print method to start the printing process. Handle the PrintPage event where you specify the output to print, by using the GraphicsGraphics property of the PrintPageEventArgs.

For more information about printing from a Windows Form application, see the Windows Forms Print Support. If you wish to print from a Windows Presentation Foundation application, see the System.Printing namespace.

Note

In .NET 6 and later versions, the System.Drawing.Common package, which includes this type, is only supported on Windows operating systems. Use of this type in cross-platform apps causes compile-time warnings and run-time exceptions. For more information, see System.Drawing.Common only supported on Windows.

Constructors

PrintDocument()

Initializes a new instance of the PrintDocument class.

Properties

CanRaiseEvents

Gets a value indicating whether the component can raise an event.

(Inherited from Component)
Container

Gets the IContainer that contains the Component.

(Inherited from Component)
DefaultPageSettings

Gets or sets page settings that are used as defaults for all pages to be printed.

DesignMode

Gets a value that indicates whether the Component is currently in design mode.

(Inherited from Component)
DocumentName

Gets or sets the document name to display (for example, in a print status dialog box or printer queue) while printing the document.

Events

Gets the list of event handlers that are attached to this Component.

(Inherited from Component)
OriginAtMargins

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the position of a graphics object associated with a page is located just inside the user-specified margins or at the top-left corner of the printable area of the page.

PrintController

PrinterSettings

Gets or sets the printer that prints the document.

Site

Gets or sets the ISite of the Component.

(Inherited from Component)

Methods

CreateObjRef(Type)

Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object.

(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject)
Dispose()

Releases all resources used by the Component.

(Inherited from Component)
Dispose(Boolean)

Releases the unmanaged resources used by the Component and optionally releases the managed resources.

(Inherited from Component)
Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetLifetimeService()
Obsolete.

Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance.

(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject)
GetService(Type)

Returns an object that represents a service provided by the Component or by its Container.

(Inherited from Component)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
InitializeLifetimeService()
Obsolete.

Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance.

(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone(Boolean)

Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object.

(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject)
OnBeginPrint(PrintEventArgs)

Raises the BeginPrint event. It is called after the Print() method is called and before the first page of the document prints.

OnEndPrint(PrintEventArgs)

Raises the EndPrint event. It is called when the last page of the document has printed.

OnPrintPage(PrintPageEventArgs)

Raises the PrintPage event. It is called before a page prints.

OnQueryPageSettings(QueryPageSettingsEventArgs)

Raises the QueryPageSettings event. It is called immediately before each PrintPage event.

Print()

Starts the document's printing process.

ToString()

Provides information about the print document, in string form.

Events

BeginPrint

Occurs when the Print() method is called and before the first page of the document prints.

Disposed

Occurs when the component is disposed by a call to the Dispose() method.

(Inherited from Component)
EndPrint

Occurs when the last page of the document has printed.

PrintPage

Occurs when the output to print for the current page is needed.

QueryPageSettings

Occurs immediately before each PrintPage event.
