Greetings!
When Printing in landscape format from the print button in the ViewReport Control (WinForms) the control is missing sending PaperSettings to the printer. Hence we get an ugly dialog telling us "Current printer paper size is different.. bla bla bla". Choose Yes, No, Cancel. Clicking "No" changes the printing layout to landscape. Here's the trick, the control should first set the printing queues orientation to the report default, then check. But it doesn't.
This has been discussed in this thread:http://www.infragistihttps://ko.infragistics.com/community/forums/f/retired-products-and-controls/69016/override-paper-orientation#349391cs.com/community/forums/p/69016/349391.aspx#349391
Clearly this is a bug in the control since doing it in code yields the correct result (see code below). If we can do it by code, so can the ViewReport control.
LocalPrintServer localPrintServer = new LocalPrintServer(); PrintQueue defaultPrintQueue = localPrintServer.DefaultPrintQueue; string printerName = defaultPrintQueue.Name; UltraWinReportViewer.PageSettings currentPageSettings = vrReport.GetCurrentPageSettings(); UltraWinReportViewer.PaperSettings paperSettings = new UltraWinReportViewer.PaperSettings(currentPageSettings.PaperSize, currentPageSettings.PageOrientation); vrReport.Print(paperSettings, printerName, UltraWinReportViewer.PageRange.All, false);
The solution is NOT to have my own print button and do this. I am using the toolbar control in the ReportViewer and cannot have my on button the form.
I had hopes the PrintStarted event would have information on the selected PrintQueue an perhapas a Cancel event argument so that we could handle it by ourselves, but no.
So, when do you plan to fix this?

Sorry, I meant 15.1 installation.
Hi Michael,
Thanks for the update.
How is this fix being released if WPF Reporting is not included in the 15.2 installation?
