I think that was the version which had good COM support. I'd just instantiate the object, and tell it (i.e. the printer) what to do - which template to use, which values to put into the fields, print, eject. The code was about 40 lines altogether. The editor was simple and decent, no bells nor whistles, just did what it should.
