The best way to manage printing in your application, is to use the PrintDocument Class. MSDN Article[^]. Saving a bitmap of the form, and printing the bitmap gives you terrible results, rather use the GDI+( MSDN[^] ) classes to generate a proper document and print that.

Hope this helps

Take a look, a very detailed example on the MSDN Magazine article

Preview and Print from Your Windows Forms App with the .NET Printing Namespace[^]

Don't print a form! Print some data — the document. Use the same very data to generate a form look and the printed presentation of it. As Wayne correctly suggested, use System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument, see the code sample: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.printing.printdocument.aspx[^].
