    I'd like to print a week view as it appears in the application, i.e. days across the top, time slots along the side, and appointments sized and placed in those slots. I'd like it in landscape mode. Seems like it should be simple but I can't figure it out.

    Hello Art,

    Thank you for writing.

    Currenty, RadScheduler does not support such a layout mode for printing. You can see the available printing layouts in this article: http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/scheduler-print-support-schedulerprintstyle.html.

    I have added a feature request for such in our Public Issue Tracking System. Feel free to add your vote for it here: http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/winforms/14542.

    I have updated your Telerik Points for this request. 

    As a workaround I can suggest using the standard windows forms printing functionality to print the control as seen on the form. Here is a sample method:
    private void PrintControl(Control control)
           {
               var bitmap = new Bitmap(control.Width, control.Height);
     
               var pd = new PrintDocument();
               pd.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = true;
               control.DrawToBitmap(bitmap, new Rectangle(0, 0, control.Width, control.Height));
     
               pd.PrintPage += (s, e) => e.Graphics.DrawImage(bitmap, 100, 100);
     
               PrintPreviewDialog printPreviewDialog1 = new PrintPreviewDialog();
               printPreviewDialog1.Document = pd;
     
               if (printPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
               {
                   pd.Print();
               }
           }


    All the best,
    Stefan

    Here you are:
    Imports System.Drawing.Printing
     
    Public Class Form1
        Dim bitmap As Bitmap
        Private Sub PrintControl(control As Control)
            bitmap = New Bitmap(control.Width, control.Height)
     
            Dim pd = New PrintDocument()
            pd.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = True
            control.DrawToBitmap(bitmap, New Rectangle(0, 0, control.Width, control.Height))
     
            AddHandler pd.PrintPage, AddressOf PrintRange
     
            Dim printPreviewDialog1 As New PrintPreviewDialog()
            printPreviewDialog1.Document = pd
     
            If printPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog() = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
                pd.Print()
            End If
     
        End Sub
     
        Private Sub PrintRange(sender As Object, e As PrintPageEventArgs)
            e.Graphics.DrawImage(Bitmap, 100, 100)
        End Sub
     
        Private Sub RadButton1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadButton1.Click
            PrintControl(RadScheduler1)
        End Sub
        
    End Class
