Example

// Print the image in the center of the page at the original size
Printer.Title := 'Original Image';
ABitmap.PrintImage( 0, ievpCenter, iehpCenter, iesNormal, 0, 0, 1 );

// Print the image in the center of the page stretched to page dimensions (respecting the proportions)
Printer.Title := 'Stretched Image';
ABitmap.PrintImage( 0, ievpCenter, iehpCenter, iesFitToPage, 0, 0, 1 );

// Print the image as a poster, four pages wide and six pages high
Printer.Title := 'Poster';
ABitmap.PrintImage( 0, ievpCenter, iehpCenter, iesMultiplePages, 4, 6, 1 );
