It's likely because the program can't find out the map units by itself.

Setting manually the 'MapUnits' property of the MapPrinter should help.

Sidenote : from 2.3 the API will provide a way to get the scale without setting manually the map units.

It's not just confusion, it's not working at all:confused:.

What are your map units?

In the preview window, do you see the page numbers changing when modifying the scale?

If your service is public, can you share the Url in order me to test.

Thanks for reply

My service is not public so can't share the url

In the preview window, it shows only a single page 1
when modifying the scale no changes occurs in page numbers

My units are in meter

I did some tests.
I get this kind of wrong result if the MapUnits are not initialized and can't be found automatically.

But it looks working well if the MapUnits are manually initialized.

Did you set the MapPrinter MapUnits?
Something like :
<controls:MapPrinter x:Name="mapPrinter" Map="{Binding ElementName=MyMap}" MapUnits="Meters" ......

Glad you got it working 🙂

Concerning the possibility to clear the selected bookmarks, there is a sample here.
