I'm currently writing a text editor in C#, however, I've run into a bit of trouble. I'm trying to get the program to print the text that is currently in the text box. I have set up the printing dialog and actually sent a message to the printer. The problem is, I don't know how to specify what to print on the paper. So how exactly do I do that?

How do I specify what should be printed on the paper?
Attach an event handler to the PrintPage event, which will have a PrintPageEventArgs as the event argument. The PrintPageEventArgs has a property Graphics, which you can use as any other surface. Just draw to that to show the output for each page.
