Thanks for the suggestion.  I just ran the test app and it doesn't 
print: it just hangs.  It works if I print to file, but not if I print 
to the CUPS-PDF printer inside the VM.  (This is happening on the 
OpenSuse virtual machine image that is available on the Mono web site).  
Unfortunately, hanging the app is worse than only being able to print to 
A4 paper. :-(
