Q:

How can I print a user selected document?

I want to select a file using a file dialog and then print the selected file using the PrintDocument.Print method.
Below is some code which is a partial implementation of what I am trying to accomplish:
     using System;
     using System.Drawing.Printing;
     using System.IO;
     using System.Windows.Forms;

     namespace InstalledAndDefaultPrinters
     {
     class Program
     {

     static void Main(string[] args)
     {   
        string filename="";
        foreach (string printer in PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters)
            Console.WriteLine(printer);
        var printerSettings = new PrinterSettings();
        Console.WriteLine(string.Format("The default printer is: {0}", printerSettings.PrinterName));

        Console.WriteLine(printerSettings.PrintFileName); 
        OpenFileDialog fdlg = new OpenFileDialog();
        fdlg.Title = "Open File Dialog";
        fdlg.InitialDirectory = @"C:\ ";
        fdlg.RestoreDirectory = true;
        fdlg.ShowDialog();
        Console.WriteLine(fdlg.Title);
        if (fdlg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
        {
            filename = String.Copy(fdlg.FileName);
        }
        Console.WriteLine(filename);

        PrintDialog printdg = new PrintDialog();
        PrintDocument pd_doc = new PrintDocument();
        printdg.ShowDialog();
        if (printdg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
        {

It is at this point that I would like to print the selected file.
            pd_doc.Print();
        }       
    }

The code I have above clearly does not do what I need. What alternative approach might steer me in the right direction?

A:

You can solve that using following code snippet.It works as you want.
       private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            PrintDialog printdg = new PrintDialog();
            if (printdg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
            {
                PrintDocument pd = new PrintDocument();
                pd.PrinterSettings = printdg.PrinterSettings;
                pd.PrintPage += PrintPage;
                pd.Print();
                pd.Dispose();
            }
        }
        private void PrintPage(object o, PrintPageEventArgs e)
        {
            System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(@"C:\Users\therath\Desktop\372\a.jpg");
            // You can replace your logic @ here to load the image or whatever you want
            Point loc = new Point(100, 100);
            e.Graphics.DrawImage(img, loc);
        }
