You may need to provide a little more information than "per printer page layout settings."

I am guessing that you mean portrait/landscape and margin settings - so that you can determine the maximum area that will fit on a page. But that's only a guess: you may have something completely different in mind!

If you update your question you'll have a better chance of an answer!

I recommend first experimenting with writing a program that gets and sets the page layout settings. At this point, completely forget about drawing rectangles, etc., and just concentrate on understanding what settings you can get for the selected printer and how to get them.

Once you are able to get the printer settings - and understand what they are, most likely you'll figure out how to apply them in your application.
