One way is when the C# is done doing it's saving you can do a redirect to your print page sending alone the values you want displayed to print.

What do you mean? the user should be able to print the page, you can even give them a 'Print' button to press. What am I missing?

Well your choices are to format your aspx page to look pretty, or implement a report of some kind, generate a PDF or use some other report generator. The simplest is to format your aspx, if it's a grid generating a .CSV might work, otherwise it's a bit more work to add others. I used to use PDFSharp to generate PDF reports.

XML

Try this
Step1:Get all the value you need to print from session.Redirect it to a new html page.
Step2:Add one html page for printing those values
Step3:In html page inside script tag declare a variables and assign values from session
Step4:Add div inside body tag.
Step5:Create html table inside script according to the format you want in printout,and bind all values inside <tr>/<td>
Step6:Inside script tag $("#divid").html(HTML);

HTML will be variable in which table is get created.like
 var HTML = "";
 HTML += "<table id='tableid'>";
 HTML += "</table>";

To get session values in html use below code
if (Session["NAME"] != null)
            {
               var name = Session["NAME"];
            }

Hope this make sense.

For passing data, you can use Sessions or QueryStrings.

You just need to place a Print Button in the second aspx page like below.

<button onclick="printPage()">Print this page</button>

Add JavaScript function like...

XML

<script>
function printPage()
{
    window.print();
}
</script>

so, when you click on the Button, it will print all the things showing on that aspx page. As simple as that.

Keep coding. :)
