Standard Print Dialog Box in x64 CPU Does Not Appear

I am compiling C# code on a 64-bit PC using Windows XP x64 OS for "Any CPU". The compiled version opens the standard print dialog box fine, but on my 64-bit PC (the same PC on which the source was compiled) the standard print dialog box will not appear. As far as I can tell, all other parts of my executable file, which include the opening of numerous custom dialog boxes, run fine on both 32 and 64-bit PCs. Why won't the standard dialog box appear when called on my 64-bit PC when it does so fine on all our 32-bit PCs?

Do you have any printers installed on that PC?
Maybe it won't show if there's no printers?
(I know printing things yell at me if I have no printers installed)

I have several printers attached with the appropriate drivers and they all are working fine on other applications including outside vendor software which seem to use the standard printer dialog box. I quite confused why I'm having the problem on my own 64-bit PC whereas all the 32-bit PCs to which I've sent the executable have no problem opening the dialog box.
