If you are using window.print then I don’t think it is possible. If you are calling window.print(),It is simply an indirect method to the browser, so whether a dialog shows up or not is dependent on the browser (and maybe it's settings, if applicable), not your code. I think it is a security related thing which restrict a web page to send thousand unwanted pages to your printer. In the same point of time it will make the code more cross-browser compatible. If you want to set the print settings, you could do something like have the button pop up an window.alert() asking the user to change their print settings before it calls the window.print().
