Oh boy, I really need help with this one.  I've been working on it for
days and have gotten nowhere.  The department I'm contracting for have
just purchased a very nice and highly expensive HP Laserjet 5500n
colour laser printer, solely so that I could print easily from VB.NET.
My problem is I cannot seem to change the print settings for the
print dialogue programatically. For example, most of the prints
require a landscape format.  I've tried:

pd.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = True

and

pd.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = True

where pd is a PrintDocument class of course.  I then attach the print
document to the print dialogue using pDlg.Document = pd and voila! the
print dialogue tells me it's in portrait mode.  Similarly I can't
change the page size or indeed anything else in the dialogue.

The PrintDocument default page settings ARE changing before I show the
print dialogue because I've tested the variables, but the print
dialogue seems to set them back to a basic portrait format.  Is it a
setting within the printer that could be causing this or what?  I've
looked avidly throughout the newsgroups for anyone who's had a similar
problem, but I somehow seem to be the only one in the world!

Does anyone have any ideas???
