WinForms TreeView Control has in-built support for printing. To print the content of treeview, convert the treeview into the printable document using TreeViewPrintDocument.

C#

using Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools;

namespace WindowsFormsApp20

{
    
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            //Convert the Treeview as printing document
            TreeViewPrintDocument printDocument = new TreeViewPrintDocument(this.treeViewAdv1);
            //Print the contents of the Grid
            printDocument.Print();
        }   
    }
}

VB.NET

Imports Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools

Namespace WindowsFormsApp20
    Public Partial Class Form1
        Inherits Form

        Public Sub New()
            InitializeComponent()
            'Convert the Treeview as printing document
            Dim printDocument As TreeViewPrintDocument = New TreeViewPrintDocument(Me.treeViewAdv1)
            'Print the contents of the Grid
            printDocument.Print()
        End Sub
    End Class
End Namespace
