Print

The rendered 3D chart can be printed directly from the browser by calling the public method print. The ID of the 3D chart’s div element must be passed as the input parameter to that method.

CSHTML

@(Html.EJS().Chart3D("container").WallColor("transparent").EnableRotation(true).Rotation(7).Tilt(10).Depth(100)
   .Series(series =>
   {
      series.Type(Syncfusion.EJ2.Charts.Chart3DSeriesType.Column).  
      XName("country").
      YName("gold").
      Name("Gold").
      DataSource(ViewBag.dataSource).
      Add();
   })
   .PrimaryXAxis(px => 
      px.ValueType(Syncfusion.EJ2.Charts.ValueType.Category)
   )
   .Title("Olympic Medals")
   .Render())

<div>
    @Html.EJS().Button("togglebtn").IsPrimary(true).Content("Print").Render()
</div>
<script>
    document.getElementById('togglebtn').onclick = () => {
        var chart = document.getElementById('container').ej2_instances[0];
        chart.print();
    };
</script>

Print.cs

public ActionResult Index()
{
    List<ChartData> chartData = new List<ChartData>
    {
        new ChartData { country= "USA",       gold= 50 },
        new ChartData { country= "China",     gold= 40 },
        new ChartData { country= "Japan",     gold= 70 },
        new ChartData { country= "Australia", gold= 60 },
        new ChartData { country= "France",    gold= 50 },
        new ChartData { country= "Germany",   gold= 40 },
        new ChartData { country= "Italy",     gold= 40 },
        new ChartData { country= "Sweden",    gold= 30 }
    };
    ViewBag.dataSource = chartData;
    return View();
}
public class ChartData
{
    public string country;
    public double gold;
}
