C#

private void printpage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
    e.Graphics.PageUnit = gu;        //unit used is graphicunit.millimeter.
    e.PageSettings.PaperSize = new System.Drawing.Printing.PaperSize();
    e.PageSettings.PaperSize.Width = 75;
    e.PageSettings.PaperSize.Height = 15;
    System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:/'" + barcode_txt + "'.jpg"); 
    e.Graphics.DrawImage(img, 135, 60);
    e.Graphics.DrawString(barcode_txt, newfont, Brushes.Black, 190, 70);

private void printpage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
e.Graphics.PageUnit = gu; //unit used is graphicunit.millimeter.
e.PageSettings.PaperSize = new System.Drawing.Printing.PaperSize();
e.PageSettings.PaperSize.Width = 75;
e.PageSettings.PaperSize.Height = 15;
System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:/'" + barcode_txt + "'.jpg");
e.Graphics.DrawString(barcode_txt, newfont, Brushes.Black,190,70);

}

This is the code am using to print the barcode image and text on a sticker of 35 mm * 15 mm size..
what am trying to ask is when i print the image and text are printed on the 8 sticker leaving seven stickers blank and if i again give the print command the print is done on 16 sticker instead of 9 sticker leaving seven stickers blank again in between...

thanks for the response.....

I don't see any code to draw the image, or to set its position on the page.

e.Graphics.DrawImage(img,135,60);
e.Graphics.DrawString(barcode_txt, newfont, Brushes.Black,190,70);
}

I don't understand the correlation between your declared paper size and your x,y coordinates for the image and text. Take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/558kfzex.aspx for information on correctly aligning images.

Member 7895843 28-Oct-13 7:45am

ok..thanks i will have a look at the link...
you mean to say that my x,y coordinates for image and text should be with in my declared paper height and width right i.e between 75 mm - width and 15 mm -height...
is it?

Richard MacCutchan 28-Oct-13 8:00am

Isn't that obvious? Why would you try to print outside your declared paper size?

Member 7895843 28-Oct-13 8:05am

right....will check it out....
thanks for your support.....

private void printpage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
//Point loc = new Point(105, 110);
//System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:/Barcode.jpg");
e.Graphics.PageUnit = gu;
e.PageSettings.PaperSize = new System.Drawing.Printing.PaperSize();
e.PageSettings.PaperSize.Width = 75;
e.PageSettings.PaperSize.Height = 15;

System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:/'" + barcode_txt + "'.jpg");

#region first sticker(1up)
e.Graphics.DrawString("GRMI MEDICINES", Boldfont, Brushes.Black, 15, 5);//120,50
e.Graphics.DrawImage(img, 10, 8);//105,60
e.Graphics.DrawString(barcode_txt, newfont, Brushes.Black, 16, 12);//160,70
e.Graphics.DrawString(item_desc, newfont, Brushes.Black, 7, 14);//75,80
e.Graphics.DrawString(SINM.ToString(), newfont, Brushes.Black, 35, 14);//200,80
#endregion

#region second sticker(2up)
e.Graphics.DrawString("GRMI MEDICINES", Boldfont, Brushes.Black, 45, 5);//235,50
e.Graphics.DrawImage(img, 42, 8);//220,60
e.Graphics.DrawString(barcode_txt, newfont, Brushes.Black, 49, 12);//260,70
e.Graphics.DrawString(item_desc, newfont, Brushes.Black, 40, 14);//240,80
e.Graphics.DrawString(SINM.ToString(), newfont, Brushes.Black, 65, 14);//365,80
#endregion
}

IN this way i have changed my x nad y coordinates....But even now the stickers are being omitted blank..
i am using running roll of stickers with 2 ups...
any other suggestions or advice pls?
