Solved!!!
Strangely, I get an error about pexpr not being available in my
default win32 build (I don't have +postscript built in). Maybe
having +postscript precludes the use of the Win32 common print
dialog?
That is indeed the issue. I disabled postscript and now the print
dialog displays when I do a ':ha'. I'm not sure if this is by design
or if this is a bug, anyone?
Thanx!

I think it is by design:
----8<----
*pexpr-option*
'printexpr' 'pexpr' String (default: see below)
global
Expression that is evaluated to print the PostScript produced with
|:hardcopy|.
---->8----
IMHO the ":help :hardcopy" section should make it more explicit:
On MS-Windows, *unless +postscript has been compiled-in, which is
usually not the case,* a dialog is displayed (etc.)
On other systems, PostScript is written (etc.)
and, if 'printexpr' is indeed not present on -postscript systems, ":help
'printexpr'" should IMHO include
{only available when compiled with the |+postscript| feature}
Of course, as mentioned at the top of that helpfile (print.txt), nothing
that relates to printing is available without +printer compiled-in.
Best regards,
Tony.
