I need to make a simple modification to NSPrintPanel. Because my app deals with documents whose pages might have non-numeric names (e.g., Cover, 22A, iii), I'd like the "Copies & Pages" pane's NSTextFields to be able to display/accept values other than integers. I realize that I can endow my NSPrintPanel with an accessory view, but what I'd really like to do is replace the Copies & Pages pane with one of my own. But I'd still like to retain all the other panes, for obvious reasons. There doesn't seem to be too much in the API for NSPrintPanel that'll let me do this and I really, really don't want to have to make my own custom print panel from scratch. Scouring the docs and the web for solutions hasn't helped much -- the best I can come up with is creating an NSPrintInfo object with a modified dictionary, but even that won't let me set the start and end pages to anything other than NSNumbers.

Has anyone here confronted this problem before?

What you need is to create your own Copies & Pages PDE that replaces Apple's. You'll have to re-implement all the functionality of the standard Apple PDE but that's probably not too hard.
