    Where can I find a code to display the Printer Settings-
    window -- that window where you can tune all the settings
    on the printer. Which paper type and size to use, which
    quality etc. How do I open that window?

    Isn't that what API is made for? Opening windows like that?

    Thanks in advance

    You can use Common Dialog Control. Add Microsoft Commond Dialog control by pressing CTRL+T and selecting it from the list. Add this control to your form. To show the Printer dialog is very easy:

    CommonDialog1.ShowPrinter

    This will show you the generic Printer dialog. You would have to then use Printer object to print what you want to be printed.

    Can I do it from API, without using Commond Dialog?
