Yet another (maybe even better?) option is to use QPainter's powerful redirecting mechanism. This approach doesn't even require subclassing of QTableView.

Qt Code: 
  1. QPrinter printer(QPrinter::HighResolution);
  2. QPrintDialog dlg(&printer, this);
  3. if (dlg.exec() == QDialog::Accepted)
  4. {
  5. 	// calculate the total width/height table would need without scaling
  6. 	const int rows = table->model()->rowCount();
  7. 	const int cols = table->model()->columnCount();
  8. 	double totalWidth = 0.0;
  9. 	for (int c = 0; c < cols; ++c)
  10. 	{
  11. 		totalWidth += table->columnWidth(c);
  12. 	}
  13. 	double totalHeight = 0.0;
  14. 	for (int r = 0; r < rows; ++r)
  15. 	{
  16. 		totalHeight += table->rowHeight(r);
  17. 	}
  18.  
  19. 	// redirect table's painting on a pixmap
  20. 	QPixmap pixmap(totalWidth, totalHeight);
  21. 	QPainter::setRedirected(table->viewport(), &pixmap);
  22. 	QPaintEvent event(QRect(0, 0, totalWidth, totalHeight));
  23. 	QApplication::sendEvent(table->viewport(), &event);
  24. 	QPainter::restoreRedirected(table->viewport());
  25.  
  26. 	// print scaled pixmap
  27. 	QPainter painter(&printer);
  28. 	painter.drawPixmap(printer.pageRect(), pixmap, pixmap.rect());
  29. }
