Specify the Number of Copies to Print

This example demonstrates how to specify how many copies of a document to print.

Handle the PrintingSystemBase.StartPrint event using the XtraReport.PrintingSystem property. In the event handler, access the PrinterSettings object using the event argument’s PrintDocument property and define the number of copies.

using DevExpress.Xpf.Printing;
using DevExpress.XtraPrinting;
// ... 

private void simpleButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
    XtraReport1 report = new XtraReport1();
    report.PrintingSystem.StartPrint += PrintingSystem_StartPrint;
    PrintHelper.Print(report);
}

private void PrintingSystem_StartPrint(object sender, PrintDocumentEventArgs e) {
    // Set the number of document copies to print.
    e.PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.Copies = 3;
}
