I remember a trick I had to use when imlementing printing on windows, in
order to get a record of the printer's settings without making them deal
with a dialog box. It involved some kind of hook that posted an event to
press the dialog's OK button before it was ever seen. This was from MSDN,
I'm pretty sure. Ugly, but effective.
