I'm not saying that it is impossible, but its not going to be pretty. Theoretically you can get the DEVMODE structure of the device( that structure will have extensions that are specific to the printer driver) set the correct values, and then write it back. There are some helper functions the the PrinterSettings object to do this. There is an example of doing that here
