When printing , somehow you get something like System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e
This e parameter has a Graphics object.
Draw lines in it and draw the text of your TextBoxes in it.
It is just like drawing in a form, but instead the drawing will appear on printer paper. Success :)

You may start to learn reporting tools - Crystal Report or Microsoft Report if you want to print result from database or follow the @Danny's (ddanbe) post.
