Well, the GnomePrintSettings are only going to be used for settings 
that are set by both the print dialog and the application. Like
Orientation & Paper Size. This settings are often found inside apps
and are also inside the print dialog & Config dialog of the printer.

So this object is going to be used only for those settings. Regarding
your questions, we don't need to disable any widgets for a particular
printer, it works the other way arround we only create the widgets
that the printer is specified to create. [This are the GpaSettings]

Ok. Yes, we need to pass an ArtDRect (which is basically a array of 4
doubles)
to get the margins & boundig box. I don't know what I was thinking when
I wrote this.
