I followed the sample provided, creating a new control and I do see pages of data from my grid... but here's the issue...
It seems like the good layout stuff must not be happening. My alternating colors don't show up. The text wrapping is not happening. My columns are never resized to fit the width of the printed page.
My theory is that because my print grid is not part of the visual tree, it never gets the Loaded event where all of the good stuff must be happening.
Please help if you can :)

I used the download from this blog:
http://blogs.telerik.com/vladimirenchev/posts/09-12-28/how_to_easy_print_and_print_preview_with_radgridview_for_wpf.aspx
I modified the grid, setting these RadGridView Attributes:
AlternationCount="2"
AlternateRowBackground="Gainsboro"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
And added an attribute to my long text column:
TextWrapping="Wrap"
I get a grid when I print using the technique from the BLOG, but the alternating row colors are missing and the text is not wrapping...
Let me know if you need more to reproduce this and I'll make a small sample project...
Thanks again,

If you want to achieve wrapping, you need to set the property Width to either the grid, or the column containing the text, as the default value is set to infinity. In other words there is no explicit Width specified and the layout system lets it occupy as much horizontal space as it needs. You can use as a reference this forum thread.
As for the AlternateRowBackground, what do you mean by "alternating row colors are missing"? Is that property missing or just the colors do not appear? If it is the first case, please try to use the binaries from our latest version, as those used in the project of the blog are from a previous version.
I hope that helps.
