At the moment, the printer setup in Gambas is just a call to the Qt library 
printer setup dialog.

Did you try to set the Printer properties before calling Printer.Setup ?

I think a real and complete printer setup depends on KDE or GNOME. I know that 
with KDE you can do the following:

1) Print to a postcript file with Gambas, by setting a filename in the 
Printer.File property.

2) exec kprinter with all needed options.

Tell me the result!
