The Print method initiates a print job. Invoking this method triggers the process of preparing a printed report based on the data in the grid and sending it to the printer. This process has several steps and involves interaction between print-specific objects and events within the control.
When the print job begins, the InitializePrint event occurs. This event receives a PrintDocument object that contains information about the print job. You examine and change the properties of this object to provide feedback for the user and control the look of the printed output.
