Hi Have you looked at the pdf.ocx control?
I added the control to a form and set it to invisible. Then used the loadfile and printpages methods to send it to print. The version 6 and version 7 launch a confirmation dialog "script is trying to print, is that ok?" or words to that effect Does that help?
