Hello all,
I'm trying to add receipt printing to a POS project I'm working on
I've create a win form with an image and listview
I've added the below code for printing but it only gives me empty page
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Drawing.Printing;
namespace CrepeCity
{
public partial class printPreview : Form
{
public printPreview()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void printPreview_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CaptureScreen();
printDocument1.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(printDocument1_PrintPage);
printDocument1.Print();
}
Bitmap memoryImage;
private void CaptureScreen()
{
Graphics myGraphics = this.CreateGraphics();
Size s = this.Size;
memoryImage = new Bitmap(s.Width, s.Height, myGraphics);
Graphics memoryGraphics = Graphics.FromImage(memoryImage);
memoryGraphics.CopyFromScreen(this.Location.X, this.Location.Y, 0, 0, s);
}
private void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
}
private void printDocument1_PrintPage_1(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
e.Graphics.DrawImage(memoryImage, 0, 0);
}
}
}
What I have tried:
Also I've tried this code to print a specific panel and it also gives me an empty page
<pre lang="c#"> [System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("gdi32.dll")]
public static extern long BitBlt(IntPtr hdcDest, int nXDest, int nYDest, int nWidth, int nHeight, IntPtr hdcSrc, int nXSrc, int nYSrc, int dwRop);
private Bitmap memoryImage;
private void CaptureScreen()
{
Graphics mygraphics = this.CreateGraphics();
Size s = this.Size;
memoryImage = new Bitmap(s.Width, s.Height, mygraphics);
Graphics memoryGraphics = Graphics.FromImage(memoryImage);
IntPtr dc1 = mygraphics.GetHdc();
IntPtr dc2 = memoryGraphics.GetHdc();
BitBlt(dc2, 0, 0, this.ClientRectangle.Width, this.ClientRectangle.Height, dc1, 0, 0, 13369376);
mygraphics.ReleaseHdc(dc1);
memoryGraphics.ReleaseHdc(dc2);
}
private void printDocument1_PrintPage(System.Object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
e.Graphics.DrawImage(memoryImage, 0, 0);
}
private void button102_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CaptureScreen();
printDocument1.Print();
}
