Hi,
How can I set programmically printing preferences on effects page? I need to
change options: Actual Size, Print Document On(Scale To Fit), % of Normal
Size.

Thanks, Fred

These are probably settings specific to the printer driver you are
using. The API only supports settings and reading a standard set of
properties, which all drivers have to support. There is no standard
interface to extra settings a driver may support.

Look at the API docs for the DEVMODE record. The members of that record
describe the standard settings.
