Parameters

  • From
    Type: System.Object

    The number of the page at which to start printing. If this argument is omitted, printing starts at the beginning.

    Type: System.Object

    The number of the last page to print. If this argument is omitted, printing ends with the last page.

  • Copies
    Type: System.Object

    The number of copies to print. If this argument is omitted, one copy is printed.

  • Preview
    Type: System.Object

    true to have Microsoft Office Excel invoke print preview before printing the object. false (or omitted) to print the object immediately.

  • ActivePrinter
    Type: System.Object

    Sets the name of the active printer.

  • PrintToFile
    Type: System.Object

    true to print to a file. If PrToFileName is not specified, Excel prompts the user to enter the name of the output file.

  • PrToFileName
    Type: System.Object

    The name of the file to print to. This parameter is used only if PrintToFile is true.

Remarks

"Pages" in the descriptions of From and To refers to printed pages— not overall pages in the sheet or workbook.

Examples

The following code example uses the PrintOutEx method to print one copy of the first two pages of the chart sheet Chart1 to the default printer. To run this code example, your workbook must contain a chart sheet named Chart1.

Private Sub PrintChartsheet()
    Dim myChartSheet As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ChartSheet = _
    Globals.Chart1.Base

    myChartSheet.PrintOutEx( _
        From:=1, _
        To:=2, _
        Copies:=1, _
        Preview:=False)            
End Sub
private void PrintChartsheet()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ChartSheet myChartSheet =
        Globals.Chart1.Base;

    myChartSheet.PrintOutEx(
        1,
        2,
        1,
        false,

        false,
        true);
}
