Gaining addressability to printer properties to change settings

I am writing my first VB.NET program that needs to manipulate printers.
Explicitly, I need to be able to set the paper source (tray) of a known
installed printer. I've looked at Printing.PaperSource and
PrinterSettings.PaperSource but have not been able to get them to work. Does
anyone have a sample of how this might be done?

Thanks,
Cory
