WebBrowser: Preventing Display of Print Dialog

Running IE 5.0 and VB 6.0 SP4 on Windows 95, the following command does what it is supposed to: print the WebBrowser document without displaying the Print Dialog.

brwWebBrowser.ExecWB OLECMDID_PRINT, OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER, "", ""

However, the document that appears to be Microsoft’s definitive statement on printing from the WebBrowser control, “Printing with the Internet Explorer WebBrowser Control” at http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/browser/wb_print.asp, states that the OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER parameter is ignored by IE 5.0. That obviously is not my experience.

Have any of you seen an environment in which OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER is ignored, i.e., the Print Dialog is displayed despite specification of this option?
