Printing Web Pages like Internet Explorer

To implement the print function i.e. when we click on the print button in the toolbar no print setup dialog will be displayed and the application will automatically start printing the document. This feature is also present in Microsoft Word. To implement this feature in your application just use the code given below.

void CMyBrowser::OnPrint() 
{
	LPOLECOMMANDTARGET pCmdTarg = NULL; 

	m_pDisp = m_WebBrowser2.GetDocument(); //get the IDispatch interface pointer
	ASSERT(m_pDisp);

	m_pDisp->QueryInterface(IID_IOleCommandTarget, (LPVOID*)&pCmdTarg); //query for olecommandtarget interface
	ASSERT(pCmdTarg);

	pCmdTarg->Exec(NULL, //call the olecommandtarget's Exec method
		OLECMDID_PRINT,
		0,
		NULL,
		NULL
	);


	if (pCmdTarg) 
		pCmdTarg->Release(); // release document's command target

	if (m_pDisp) 
		m_pDisp->Release(); // release document's dispatch interfac
