You may not be getting a handle on the object. Printer doesn't exist by itself. You have to reference it in terms of the Document Object Model. With VBScript/IE, you might need a reference similar to the following:

document.all.printer.command1.Click()

Or something like that. I'm not used to using VBScript a great deal because it is limited to IE so I apologize if the above is too JavaScript oriented.
