PageSetupDialog "Printer..." button disabled

[Joel Moore]

This is driving me nuts. What would cause the "Printer..." button on the
PageSetupDialog to be disabled? I've got the AllowPrinter property set to
True but the button still won't enable.

Dammit!! Not two minutes after I posted this did I find the answer.

My app is using both the PageSetupDialog and the PrintPreviewDialog and I
never set the Document property for the PageSetupDialog. I was simply
setting the PageSetupDialog.PageSettings to
PrintDocument.DefaultPageSettings and then copying them back after
receiving a DialogResult.OK from PageSetupDialog.ShowDialog.

Hopefully that helps someone as dense as myself confused by this issue.
