I have developed an application in visual basic which uses opengl for rendering graphics.

Now I want to print the rendered image to printer. Unfortunately no help is available for visual basic.

Anybody out there to help me ?

Sample code will be of great help.

I doubt you can use a printer context and render to it.

Screenshot seems the way to go. I mean, not really a screenshot.

Render into an offscreen surface (or the OpenGL equivalent of it), get the data of that surface and BitBlt it over to the printer context.
