printStyle	SchedulerPrintStyle

A SchedulerPrintStyle object which specifies the print style to be used when printing the Scheduler’s data.

Remarks

The Print Preview window displays the scheduler as it will appear when it’s printed. The scheduler can be previewed and printed only if the XtraPrinting Library is available. To verify that printing and previewing the scheduler is possible, use the SchedulerControl.IsPrintingAvailable property.

The Print Preview dialog allows you to print the Scheduler control, or save as PDF or image.

Use this method to print the scheduler’s data using the specified print style. Note that all the available print styles are contained in the SchedulerControl.PrintStyles collection.
