Hi Olivier,
I am running on Windows XP and I've used some Win32 Stuff -- I have
"Python programming on Win32" and use it as a reference from time to
time. I'll look at the Print stuff you pointed out but had hoped that
QPrinter could handle it. I suppose it's difficult to handle cross
platform with so many different printers and printer options. I even
tried cpickle but of course it can't pickle this class.
Still hopeful....

Hello PyQt group,
My application uses a Brother label printer to spit out labels. I'd
like to do a "Page Setup", say in my preferences dialog and then save
the printer information in a settings so that we don't have to go
through a print dialog.
Currently I go through the print dialog once then use the resulting
QPrinter for subsequent print operations and that works fine. I can
assign the printer name to QPrinter so that it at least defaults to
the correct printer, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to set
the appropriate variables to match the printer to the specific label
size.
Specifically, in the print dialog, I use the properties dialog to
select the label size. On return I can examine things like pageSize,
pageRect, paperSize, paperRect but I can't seem to set pageSize and
can't find methods for setting the page or paper Rect.
For example, after the print dialog, pageSize returns 30 but
setPageSize(30) causes an invalid type error since it expects a
QPrinter.PageSize enum value. 1) How would you go about doing a
PageSetup dialog, not Print Dialog, to both select a printer and it's
default properties.
2) What needs to be saved and how can I restore the relevant properties.
I'm used to working through these issues myself, an often find that
once the question is asked, the answer seems to come on it's own, but
this time I'm stuck.
Thanks

hi,
if your application run with Windows XP, you can use win32 api.
you can find sample here: http://www.speechcomputing.com/node/2271
