PrintChart Method

Use this method to print the chart image. The chart image is scaled to fit the printable area based on the paper size and the PrintSettings properties. The aspect ratio (height-to-width) is maintained. The print dialog appears if PrintSettings.ShowDialog = True.

This method is equivalent to selecting the Print Chart button in the Toolbar.
