My comment:

There are several ways to get a printer device context. Once you obtain the value, you have many GDI functions available for sending graphical output to the printer: print text and images.

Flag PD_RETURNDEFAULT allows you to get the default printer device context without even a displaying the dialog box. I believe this option is quite useful.
