For Each file In IO.Directory.GetFiles(folderPath)
    Try
        Dim psi As New ProcessStartInfo(file )
 
        If psi.Verbs.Contains("print") Then
            psi.Verb = "print"
            psi.UseShellExecute = True

hi ,Thanks for your reply..
For PNG images This condition always showing "False" psi.Verbs.Contains("print")
if i skip the above line i am getting a error "object reference not set to an instance of an object" at Process.Start(psi).WaitForExit()
Process.Start(psi).WaitForExit()

can you please check once please.

that's true, there is no print verb for PNG files.

hi Damith,
even PNG dont have "print" but we can print in the above code. i no need to check for the print verb. My main requirement here is i want to bind ALL images in a Folder to a SINGLE printwindow (single processstartinfo) .how can i do this .....
pullareddy S 23-Apr-14 1:35am    
And also if i run by commenting .WaitForExit() .i got 5 different windows of print for 5 images.but i want only one window with 5 images one by 1 by showing image 1 of 5, 2 of 5 like that...please check...
