Print Preview Control No Printer Error

I am using the print view control to create some reports using GDI+ in my win
form application. If the user installs the application on a machine that
does not have a printer installed the application crashes with the following
exception:

System.drawing.printing.invalidprinterexception: No Printer Installed

One way around this is to have the user install a generic printer even
thought there might not be one attached to a machine. What can I do to
elevate this step? How can I run the print preview control with out a
printer installed?

Thanks in advance
