What have you tried? Do you have code that doesn't work? What is your question (do not ask for finished code without showing that you tried few things)?

This comment has more information then the whole question above. Please use Improve question and describe the situation in more detail. You're more likely to get help with clearly defined problem.
What do you mean by "print preview form" - this is web site, why can't you just open a page formatted like it will look on paper? With the button for printing with @media print display:none;

Ok..I will try..
Actually i am new for asp.net and c# or really as a developer

That is quite alright, we all were beginners at some point. But you can choose to be clear and concise or someone who doesn't know how to describe a problem. You can be a developer who solves his own problems by doing research and trying things and THEN asking or your can be "give me de codez" dabbler who has no clue about programming :)

Cheers for you being the former :)

This is asp.net, only control you have over printing is by your pages rendred client side.

You can use the page you have and call javascript print function on window load...

This will cause the window to flicker for a moment and open printing dialog for the user.

JavaScript

$(window).load(function() {
window.print();

// instead of close you can redirect to the calling page
window.close();

});

Alternative is to create PDF or DOC file ready for printing, but there is nothing you can do that will force the user to print...except maybe via VBScript on IE (see here[^])

Same function here[^]

Mozzila can be configured to print without dialog, but you have to have access to client browser - if you're doing internal application for the firm in which you can enforce the browser use and setup each client, you can do this.
