Yes, it's me again and my printing problems.

My question is : How do I get the print dialog to default to certain properties?
When I pass a Property in, it never gets populated. I'd like to be able to
specify orientation (landscape), grey level and postscript options. etc.

Everything I've tried seems to be ignored.

Any ideas?

thx
