The "easy way out" for non-PS printers is to depend on GhostScript - the 
Win32 port is *very* useful, and has a nice mswinpr2 device that pops up 
the usual windows printer selection dialog.

Perhaps you could try printing to GS, and if it's not found, pop up a 
dialog explaining that GS is needed for direct printing, and offering to 
send a PDF into Acrobat Reader instead (from where it can of course be 
printed fairly easily).

All the best,
