# Datagridview Printing in C#

Today In this article, I am trying to explain the [concept of datagridview](https://www.mindstick.com/Articles/441/cell-formatting-of-datagridview-in-dot-net) printing in C#.\

### Implement Print in datagridview

- Open Visual Studio 2010.
- Create a new project and give an appropriate name.
- Drag and drop datagridview in your form from the toolbox.
- Add data in the datagridview.
- Drag and drop the printDocument from the toolbox.
- Add a button for print on the form.
- Double click to get the click event of a button.
- Write the below code in the print button click event.
- **printDocument1.Print();**
- Double click on the printDocument to get the Print Page event.
- Write the below code for print the datagridview **:-**

```
private void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
        {
            Bitmap bm = new Bitmap(this.dataGridView1.Width, this.dataGridView1.Height);

            dataGridView1.DrawToBitmap(bm, new Rectangle(0, 0, this.dataGridView1.Width, this.dataGridView1.Height));
            e.Graphics.DrawImage(bm, 0, 0);
        }
```

**11.** Run the demo project;

#### Output: -

#### Note: -

Click on the Print button to get the print of this datagridview.

I am saving the print datagridview in the XPS document.
