Here is my modifications I still getting same error message:

QPrinter printer;

     printer.setPageSize(QPrinter::A4);

     printer.setResolution(600);

     QPrintDialog  print(&printer  ,  this);

     QPixmap  pixmap(ui->tableWidget->size());

     QPainter  painter(&printer);

     if(print.exec()==  QPrintDialog::Accepted)

     {

         ui->tableWidget->render(&pixmap);

         //  The  resultant  pixmap  is  correct

         pixmap.save("c:/tetx.png");

         //I  know  this  wrong  line  but  I  can't  find  a  way  for  printing  pixmap

         painter.drawPixmap(0,  0,  ui->tableWidget->width(),  ui->tableWidget->height(),  pixmap);

     }


QWin32PrintEngine::drawPixmap, StretchBlt failed (Not enough storage is 
available to process this command.)
