Hi Jonathan,
I'm copying this to the list as well, as some there may be interested.
Are you on Mac or PC? I did this for both Mac and PC, and it's different
for each. On the PC, if you put in the msg:
answer printer
you will see 'page ranges' are not selectable.
I then create an offscreen stack, and populate it with a card for each
page to print. I then (optionally) capture the image of each card to a
temp file, and show them in a print preview. From there it's a simple
matter of marking the cards to print, and printing them one at a time.
In the print preview window, I can also choose the number of copies, the
page range, etc...store them in custom props and then:
repeat for each line L in the uPagesToPrint
go cd x
--> tW & tH IS THE WIDTH AND HEIGHT TO PRINT IN PIXELS
--> CHANGES DEPENDING ON PRINT LAYOUT
print card into 0,0,tW,tH
--> THIS PRINTS A BREAK SO THAT THE NEXT PAGE CAN PRINT
print break
end repeat
hope that helps.

I have been stymied on part of this,
How do you disable the page ranges? Do you also disable the collate
option?
If you print multiple copies, does it have to re-send and re-calculate
the print job for every copy?
I would really like to create a single step print dialog box that works
perfectly, but it looks like that would require an external, or using
cScript - which would be a big pain, and would not work cross-platform.
