Scripting Print Window settings without UI scripting?

Hiya,

I'm looking to see if any of the following is possible without doing it with UI scripting:

Setting values in Apple's Page Setup window (eg. destination printer, orientation, percent, paper size)

Setting values in Apple's Print window (eg. destination printer, colour settings, paper feed etc.)

Setting the Distiller Setting in the PDF Options menu when printing to "Adobe PDF".

If it can't be directly scripted, are there preferences with these values in them that could be altered by a script? When you pull up the various menus there are options selected, these values must be coming from somewhere... perhaps within the programming itself and therefore inaccessible.

Anyway, just thought it worth asking.

Cheers,

Cojcolds
