Hi Jana,

Currently there is no printing API implemented in our RadGridView control. But I want to assure you that this functionality is in our to-do list for some of our next releases.

What is the status of the print API for the GridView?  Will this be available in the next release?

Thanks

Hi nbahl,

Printing is still not supported  at the moment. But we are already working on printing support for WPF and even Silverlight . It will be available in close future releases.
The recommended workaround is to export the data to Word/Excel/CSV format, and print the exported document. For further information, please consult the Exporting example(Examples->GridView->Exporting).

Is there any progress on this yet?

The last post was 5 months ago and as far as I can see there's still no printing support. (Exporting and printing from Excel isn't really a solution when most users want a quick print)

If it's still not available, is it possible to pass a WPF GridView to Telerik Reporting and print using that instead?

Hello Mitch,

The printing will be available officially in Q1 2010 (middle of March) however we will do our best to provide early beta early next year. In the meantime please check this post to know more how to use Telerik Reporting in WPF:

Hello Danny,

Printing is not yet part of the grid however you can find it as example here:

Hello,
You now have a new printing feature of RadGridView Q1 2012 without the need to export to other formats.
But only for WinForms?
Any plans for WPF?

Best regards,

Kenneth

Hi,

 Our current demo is using RadDocument for both print and export. You do not need to export first in order to print. 

The same demo can be found on your local copy of our WPF examples.

Hello again,

In this video:
http://tv.telerik.com/watch/winforms/getting-started-with-printing-for-radgridview-
I can see a new PrintPreview method on RadGridView:

this.radGridView1.PrintPreview();

I ask you again:
Is there a plan for implementing such a method in your WPF GridView?
Using the RadDocument-solution demands a lot of coding to make a copy of the grids layout.

Best regards,

Kenneth

Hello,

 We do not have plans to provide such feature in the near future. If you want support more advanced printing and exporting scenarios you can use Telerik Reporting.
