Solution 1

The whole idea of a PrintDocument is that the PrintPage method is used to print the data regardless of the destination.

The difference is that for a PrintPreview you do this:

C#

PrintPreviewDialog ppd = new PrintPreviewDialog();
ppd.Document = myPrintDocument;
ppdialog.Show();

And for a "real" print you do this:

C#

myPrintDocument.Print();
