This is just an FYI, I had the print setup in my scripts without user
input and that worked fine until I upgraded to FMP 9. Now I have
huge printing issues from PC's but not the Macs. Lots of crashes.

Does anyone have any experience with scripting up a printer setup
solution that takes care of this by walking the user through
choosing the printer, paper tray, orientation, etc. and saving
this information for use in subsequent print jobs?

Hi Withan,
What I have been doing in cases where I want the user to select the
printer and settings is to put in a Print Setup step in the print
script. It will open the standard Mac or Windows printer selection
box and let the user select the options for the print job.
You can also preset them and run the step without dialog but it
sounds like this won't meet your needs.
Since it uses the standard system printer controls it will be the
same thing they see when printing from any program.
I hope this helps.
