Remarks

You can print the entire Silverlight control by setting the PageVisual property to the layout root of the Silverlight content. Alternatively, you can print a portion of the Silverlight control by setting PageVisual to the named UIElement that you want to print.

After the PrintPage event occurs, the specified PageVisual will be sent to the printer to be printed. If the content is too large to fit in to the PrintableArea, it will be clipped. If HasMorePages is true, PrintPage occurs again.
