Try this print document class. Made it with my new tool.
I did exactly what you said - showed a print dialogue and hit the print
button and it's ok. If you're a VB developer, let me know and I'll reexport
it in VB.

Hello all,
I'm trying to print using PrintPreviewDialog. What's happening is that the
PrintPreviewDialog shows the correct information to be printed, but when I
click the print icon, it prints a blank page. If I comment out the
printPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog();
and just do a
printDocument1.Print();
instead, it prints all the pages like a champ. Anyone know what I'm doing
wrong?
Thanks
