    Look at the PrintDocument class in Visual basic. Here is a scaled down, generic example (this is assuming VS2005 and all controls referenced below are added, and does not account for paging or line counting):

    Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click

    If PrintDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

    With PrintDocument1

    .PrinterSettings = PrintDialog1.PrinterSettings.Clone

    .Print()

    End With

    End If

    End Sub

    Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.PrintPage

    RichTextBox1.SelectAll()

    e.Graphics.DrawString(RichTextBox1.SelectedText, RichTextBox1.SelectionFont, Brushes.Black, New System.Drawing.RectangleF(e.MarginBounds.Top, e.MarginBounds.Left, e.PageBounds.Width, e.PageBounds.Height))

    e.HasMorePages = False

    End Sub
