Hi,


I need to write a LabView application that take TIF picture file from
a disk and print it using the default printer which is connecting to
the computer.


Any idea how to do something like this ?


Thank you,

Load image in PictureBox controla and use Printer's PaintPicture method to print graphics on printer, followed by the EndDoc method.

That is what I thought but an PictureBox control  can not load
tif when i try to load i get (Invalid picture) Msg

Interesting....I can load it with no problems. I didnt have any tiff image on computer, so I downloaded it from internet, and I am not sure if it IS tiff image or someone just change its extension. I tried it in design time (chaning type to all files, not just image files), and in run time with LoadPicture method.
If oyu still cant load tiff directly, then the next step will be using GDI+, I cant think of any other way.....

Nope, you were right, it seems that it wasnt the real tiff image I downloaded. Then, I cant think of any other way than to use GDI library. Try this link to see how it works
