Your printer or output device will control what options you have available for printing. You almost never want vector art created in AI (lines ,circles, text, etc) to output from AI at anything less than 800 dpi (found in the document setup dialog box in AI 10, appearance tab in AI 9.  

If you have a postscript printer you might have a chance at specifying dpi settings. 

More details on what version, platform, printer would be helpful ;) 

and why would you want to print at 72 dpi?
