What sort of "too much"?

I want to extend Print to support changes of paper type and so on which
won't change the documents paper settings.  This will be more sensible
for printing read-only docs with the wrong paper format for your site or
for test printing different formats.
 
Let me know what other things are in there and we can extend PrinterParams
and the printing routine accordingly.

What's that for?

Which sort?  There is an "Unsorted" bool in the xforms dialog which is
used to sort multiple copies -- should every copy of page 1 be printed
followed by every page two and so on or should the whole document be
printed out followed by another copy of the whole document.

So it only has any effect if you print multiple copies.  Perhaps I should
disable it until multiple copies have been specified.
