  • Article
Visio Automation Reference

Prints the contents of an object to the default printer.

Version Information
 Version Added:  Visio 2.0

Syntax

expression.Print

expression   A variable that represents a Document object.

Return Value
Nothing

Remarks

For a Document object, this method prints all of the document's pages. Background pages are printed on the same sheet of paper as the foreground pages to which they are assigned.

For a Page object, this method prints the page and its background page (if any) on the same sheet of paper.

If you're using Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) or Visual Basic, you must assign the method result to a dummy variable and you must apply the method to a variable of type Object, not type Visio.Document or Visio.Page. For example, to print a document, use the following code.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  
    Dim vsoDocument As Visio.Document 
    Dim vsoDocumentTemp as Object 
    Dim strDummy As String 

Set vsoDocument = ThisDocument 
Set vsoDocumentTemp = vsoDocument 
strDummy = vsoDocumentTemp.Print
