Report Printing

Hello All
How do you access the code or functionality behind the print button on reports? I know if you set the report to processing only, the button disappears but I need to automatically send the print to another printer that is part of a third party software package.
i.e. I want to disable the usual printing dialog box that appears and automatically send the print to anther printer, defined programatically.
But the print button never appears in design.
Ideas?
Thanks

i made a report and set the property ProcessingOnly to true.
i also set the UseRequestForm property to false so on running the report, nothing will happen except that he immediately starts "printing".
my problem was the fact that i needed to access a matrix printer and so i created a file variable and opened the file "\\SERVERNAME\PRINTER" as a texfile and wrote my data intoit. worked fine. hope it helped a bit.
