使用 Dispatcher 排队打印作业，稍后 DispatcherPriority 比 DataBind 。这样，打印作业之前，您的数据绑定将被处理。

  Dispatcher.BeginInvoke（DispatcherPriority.Loaded，
 new Action（delegate（）{printDlg.PrintVisual（control，My App）;}））; 
 

I am developing a point of sale application using wpf/mvvm. There will be receipts printed in the background during many parts of the transaction lifecycle. I have used other examples to generate and print receipts just fine in the background. I am printing a UserControl in the background, and everything looks great.

I then created the ViewModel for the control, so it can load up a transaction to print. I started with 2 basic textboxes - a Text header "Client Receipt", and top header "Printed On: MM/dd/yy hh:mm tt".

This is how the debugger is showing the lifecycle when I push a print button:

• Creates new instance of control.
• Creates new instance of ViewModel
• Sets the text for the INPC properties
• Runs a measure on the Control to get the desired pre-print size
• Loads the print dialog & retrieves the names print queue
• Scales the control's size to fit the receipt paper (should not have to scale for my currently selected printer, as the ImageArea width is set the same as my UC)
• Re-measures and Arranges the grid based on the "new" scaled image size
• calls PrintDialog.PrintVisual - sending the UserControl
• Printer spits out the receipt - with no databound text
• Then, my debugger steps into the get { return _HeaderText; } part of the code - after the control has already been printed.

Is there a way to force the databinding of the control before it gets sent to the printer without having to load the control in a panel and make it visible? I want to be able to for example, swipe the credit card and have it print the receipt with the signature line in the background, from a small popup window that asks for the CC Details (or swipe).

Is there a better way to achieve this?

PrintReceipt method:

ClientReceiptView control = new ClientReceiptView(Message);       
System.Windows.Controls.PrintDialog printDlg = new System.Windows.Controls.PrintDialog();
PrintQueue ReceiptPrinter = new LocalPrintServer().GetPrintQueue("CITIZEN CT-S310");
PrintCapabilities PC = ReceiptPrinter.GetPrintCapabilities();
printDlg.PrintQueue = ReceiptPrinter;
control.Measure(new Size(Double.PositiveInfinity, Double.PositiveInfinity));
Size PreGridSize = control.DesiredSize;
double Scale = Math.Min(PC.PageImageableArea.ExtentWidth / PreGridSize.Width, PC.PageImageableArea.ExtentHeight / PreGridSize.Height);
control.LayoutTransform = new System.Windows.Media.ScaleTransform(Scale, Scale);
Size PaperSize = new Size(PC.PageImageableArea.ExtentWidth, Math.Min(PC.PageImageableArea.ExtentHeight, PreGridSize.Height));
control.Measure(PaperSize);
Point ptGrid = new Point(PC.PageImageableArea.OriginWidth, PC.PageImageableArea.OriginHeight);
control.Arrange(new Rect(ptGrid, PaperSize));
printDlg.PrintVisual(control, "My App");

And the View Constructor (with arguments)

public ClientReceiptView(string Header)
{
    InitializeComponent();
    vm = new ClientReceiptViewModel(Header);
    this.DataContext = vm;
}

And the ViewModel:

public class ClientReceiptViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
    #region Properties

    private string _HeaderText;

    public string HeaderText
    {
        get { return _HeaderText; }
        set { _HeaderText = value; OnPropertyChanged("HeaderText"); }
    }

    private int _TripID;

    public int TripID
    {
        get { return _TripID; }
        set { _TripID = value; OnPropertyChanged("TripID"); }
    }

    private string _PrintedOn;

    public string PrintedOn
    {
        get { return _PrintedOn; }
        set { _PrintedOn = value; OnPropertyChanged("PrintedOn"); }
    }

    #endregion

    public ClientReceiptViewModel(string Header)
    {
        HeaderText = Header;
        TripID = 2220013;
        PrintedOn = "Printed: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yy hh:mm tt");
    }
}

Edit: Call Stack from Binding/Creation with a break on OnPropertyChanged("HeaderText"):

Use the Dispatcher to queue the print job at a later DispatcherPriority than DataBind. This way all your databinding gets processed before the print job does.

Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(DispatcherPriority.Loaded,
    new Action(delegate() { printDlg.PrintVisual(control, "My App"); } ));
