In your Crystal Report designer, go to Page Setup. What settings do you have for the Printer Options section? Have you tried setting it to the correct printer here, or have you tried checking the box for "No Printer (optimize for display)"? – R. McMillan
@R.McMillan thanks alot for your idea. The problem was on the crystal report set up. I had set up the printer to have pdf printer – Morgan Denis

In your report designer go into Page Setup and check the Printer Options section. It should be set to either the printer you want to use for the report, or check the check box for "No Printer".

You can use PrinterName Property to achieve this.

    var dialog= new PrintDialog();
    rep.PrintOptions.PrinterName = dialog.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;
    rep.PrintToPrinter(1, false, 0, 0);
