Thank you for the input. Actually what I did was:

- (IBAction)print:(id)sender
{
    NSView *newView;
    NSPrintInfo *printInfo = [NSPrintInfo sharedPrintInfo];
    NSPrintOperation *printOp;
    printOp = [NSPrintOperation printOperationWithView:inLetterView];

    //newView = [customePrintView printAccessoryView];

    customePrintView = [[NSView alloc] init];
    newView = customePrintView;

    [printOp setAccessoryView:newView];
    [printOp setShowPanels:YES];
    [printOp runOperation];
}

And now there is no bug reports, and I can see the application's name
shown up in the pop-up menu of the print pane, but when I select it the
view is not shown up!

accView is the NSView object class I designed and is archived in the
nib file of MainMenu.nib

Then I have .customePrintView points to accView, (the rest is just as
descibed in the .m above)

Is there a method/methods I need to call to draw the accessory view
before I set the accessory view??

Thnx again guys
