Not clear. Share more code.

You don't want to use Notepad to print for you., You want to print from within your own code. Here's a CodeProject article on the topic:

Simplified .NET Printing in C#[^]

If that doesn't satisfy you, I got 229,000 reuslts back when I googled "c# print a text file codeproject".

You have to explain explicitly if you are calling the system notepad from your application or you design an application that looks like notepad

If you are calling the windows notepad in your application like. You cannot change the font from your code. you will have to open the notepad and change the font manually from the (Format >> Font) Menu

Explicitly means clearly what you really want to do?
