The new Print method simplifies printing. Just simply call the Print method in code.
c1FlexGrid1.Print("My Document", ScaleMode.PageWidth, new Thickness(96), 20);
The Print method can take several arguments including document title, scale mode (PageWidth, ActualSize, SinglePage, Selection), margin thickness (96 = 1 inch), and maximum page count.
