The property on imagebox is Image, with an uppercase "I", not image.

Alson not available, In WPF there's no PictureBox, there is Image () – Abdulsalam Elsharif Apr 01 '17 at 12:52
So, since `imagebox` is an `Image` in itself, why don't you write simply `DrawImage(imagebox, 0, 0)`? – Massimiliano Kraus Apr 01 '17 at 13:00
I tried that and gives me (cannot convert from 'System.Windows.Controls.Image' to 'System.Drawing.Image') – Abdulsalam Elsharif Apr 01 '17 at 13:04
@AbdulsalamElsharif you need to convert from one type to the other.

You could use the PrintDialog.PrintVisual method to print out an Image in WPF:

PrintDialog pd = new PrintDialog();
myPrintDialog.PrintVisual(imagebox, "Image");
