Can I know what kind of scenario is it where you want to print something without even viewing? If it's a webpage or a new window, you can always print it out directly. Are you trying to hide the print trigger from user itself?

Since asp.net applications run in at least two tires: hosted in a web server (IIS) and in a browser (IE) on client side, there is a first line question: do you want to print from the client or from the server?

Sorry, I am not clear with your request!

Well, a very simple solution would be to hide the control by setting its visibility to false but using it to print the content.
Another option is to build the control dynamically in memory and then print it out (without displaying it anywhere).
