Hmm, looks to me you're having the combobox on the report.
The general approach is to have a form with the selection(s) and use these in the report query for filtering.
Just create a frmPrint form with the selectioncombo(s), use the selected value like:
forms!frmReport!comboname
in the selection part of the field of the report query.
By referring to the form you can also show the value(s) on the report, but the results are already showing the selecton values chosen.

Need more info ?
