Changing Printer Settings

I am having trouble with changing printer settings before I raise either the pagesetup dialog or the print preview dialog... Changing the printer name is easy, but I am also trying to change the paper size.... This particular paper size is 30386 Video Top is specific to the printer driver itself... Any sample code as to how to both change the printer and paper size as well as oriention so that the user doesn't have to? This particular printer will not hold it's default settings set within it's preference unless it is set as default, which is not what we want... The company who makes the printer and driver do not seem concerned that the settings do not hold unless default, therefore I need to set them in code.... Please help..
