Example

Setting basic printer properties.

using (GdPictureImaging gdpictureImaging = new GdPictureImaging())
{
    Console.WriteLine("Setting image alignment to -top left corner-");
    gdpictureImaging.PrintSetAlignment(PrintAlignment.PrintAlignmentTopLeft);
 
    Console.WriteLine("Setting number of copies to -3-");
    gdpictureImaging.PrintSetCopies(3);
 
    Console.WriteLine("Setting duplex mode to -Horizontal-");
    gdpictureImaging.PrintSetDuplexMode(System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Horizontal);
 
    Console.WriteLine("Enabling document collate");
    gdpictureImaging.PrintSetCollate(true);
}
