  if ure code looks something like below
  

  
  

  Code:

  
  On Error GoTo printerror
  

  
    ' The CommonDialog control is named "dlgPrint."
     
    Form1.dlgprint.Flags = cdlPDReturnDC + cdlPDNoPageNums
    If Form1.RichTextBox1.SelLength = 0 Then
       Form1.dlgprint.Flags = Form1.dlgprint.Flags + cdlPDAllPages
    Else
       Form1.dlgprint.Flags = Form1.dlgprint.Flags + cdlPDSelection
    End If
    Form1.dlgprint.ShowPrinter
    Form1.RichTextBox1.SelPrint Form1.dlgprint.hDC
  Exit Sub
  printerror:
  MsgBox "Print Error!"
  

  
  

  
  u will notice the + cdlPDNoPageNums is added, this disables the page selection part. Dont include this then u can select the pages, more info here

  my code looks the same, but the page option is still disabled;
  I think isn't important what type of printer I use...
