Regards,

One way is to use report designer's such as Crystal Reports. You should build the custom views/reports using the designer and then print them.

Read more on how to print from MSDN article that talks about the "System.Drawing.Printing Namespace"
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.printing.aspx 

Also, note that there is the PrintPageEventHandler which allows you to custom write Images or sections of text during print. Look for detailed sample on the internet.  Here is a brief sample I have. 

//invoke the print document's print method.
PrintDocument pd = new PrintDocument();
pd.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(pd_PrintPage);
pd.Print();

//the print page event handler.
//print image
ev.Graphics.DrawImage(Image.FromFile("image file path"), ev.Graphics.VisibleClipBounds);
      
Hope this helps.
