在C#中使用PrintDialog可以很方便的实现程序的打印功能。

在C#中使用PrintDialog可以很方便的实现程序的打印功能。

其步骤如下：

创建一个PrintDialog的实例。如下：

System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog PrintDialog1=new PrintDialog ();

创建一个PrintDocument的实例.如下：

System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument docToPrint =

new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument();

设置打印机开始打印的事件处理函数.函数原形如下：

void docToPrint_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)

将事件处理函数添加到PrintDocument的PrintPage事件中。

docToPrint.PrintPage+=new PrintPageEventHandler(docToPrint_PrintPage);

设置PrintDocument的相关属性，如：

PrintDialog1.AllowSomePages = true;PrintDialog1.ShowHelp = true;

把PrintDialog的Document属性设为上面配置好的PrintDocument的实例：

PrintDialog1.Document = docToPrint;

调用PrintDialog的ShowDialog函数显示打印对话框：

DialogResult result = PrintDialog1.ShowDialog();

根据用户的选择，开始打印：

if (result==DialogResult.OK)

{

docToPrint.Print();

}

 

例子如下：

 

使用时先创建PrintService类的实例，然后调用void StartPrint(Stream streamToPrint,string streamType)函数开始打印。其中streamToPrint是要打印的内容（字节流），streamType是流的类型（txt表示普通文本，image表示图像）；
