What if the number of rows with specific code won't fit into single page?

in my case the rows of the same code won't be a lot so they will fit in single page , you have a solution?

You probably aren't going to find an "off the shelf" solution - it's not a "normal" requirement.
You could either modify the library - if the source is available, I've never heard of it, and don't know where you go it - or roll your own software using the PrintDocument class[^]

Generally, you don't print DataGridView or any other controls - you print the DataSource of that control: the DataTable or Collection that provides it with data.

I tried with the printdocument but it didn't work out as I wanted

Then you did it wrong: you can print anything - exactly how you want it - with PrintDocument, provided you do it properly.
