Print the current web page asynchronously to the specified printer with the provided settings.
public HRESULT Print(ICoreWebView2PrintSettings * printSettings, ICoreWebView2PrintCompletedHandler * handler)
See ICoreWebView2PrintSettings for description of settings. Passing nullptr for printSettings
results in default print settings used.
The handler will return errorCode
as S_OK
and printStatus
as COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_PRINTER_UNAVAILABLE if printerName
doesn't match with the name of any installed printers on the user OS. The handler will return errorCode
as E_INVALIDARG
and printStatus
as COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_OTHER_ERROR if the caller provides invalid settings for a given printer.
The async Print
operation completes when it finishes printing to the printer. At this time the ICoreWebView2PrintCompletedHandler is invoked. Only one Printing
operation can be in progress at a time. If Print
is called while a Print
or PrintToPdf
or PrintToPdfStream
or ShowPrintUI
job is in progress, the completed handler is immediately invoked with E_ABORT
and printStatus
is COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_OTHER_ERROR. This is only for printing operation on one webview.
errorCode | printStatus | Notes |
---|---|---|
S_OK | COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_SUCCEEDED | Print operation succeeded. |
S_OK | COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_PRINTER_UNAVAILABLE | If specified printer is not found or printer status is not available, offline or error state. |
S_OK | COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_OTHER_ERROR | Print operation is failed. |
E_INVALIDARG | COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_OTHER_ERROR | If the caller provides invalid settings for the specified printer. |
E_ABORT | COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_STATUS_OTHER_ERROR | Print operation is failed as printing job already in progress. |

PrintToPdfStream
Provides the Pdf data of current web page asynchronously for the provided settings.
public HRESULT PrintToPdfStream(ICoreWebView2PrintSettings * printSettings, ICoreWebView2PrintToPdfStreamCompletedHandler * handler)
Stream will be rewound to the start of the pdf data.
See ICoreWebView2PrintSettings for description of settings. Passing nullptr for printSettings
results in default print settings used.
The async PrintToPdfStream
operation completes when it finishes writing to the stream. At this time the ICoreWebView2PrintToPdfStreamCompletedHandler is invoked. Only one Printing
operation can be in progress at a time. If PrintToPdfStream
is called while a PrintToPdfStream

ShowPrintUI
Opens the print dialog to print the current web page.
public HRESULT ShowPrintUI(COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_DIALOG_KIND printDialogKind)
See COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_DIALOG_KIND
for descriptions of print dialog kinds.
Invoking browser or system print dialog doesn't open new print dialog if it is already open.
// Shows the user a print dialog. If `printDialogKind` is
// COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_DIALOG_KIND_BROWSER, opens a browser print preview dialog,
// COREWEBVIEW2_PRINT_DIALOG_KIND_SYSTEM opens a system print dialog.
