WinForms Data Grid - Custom paint data cells and column headers in Print Preview

This example creates a custom Grid Control with new custom draw events (SamplePrintEvent, HeaderPrintEvent) that allow you to paint data cells and column headers in print preview:

private void MyGridView1_HeaderPrintEvent(object sender, HeaderPrintEventArgs args) {
    args.Brick.Style.BackColor = Color.PowderBlue;
}
private void simpleButton2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    myGridControl1.ShowPrintPreview();
}
