If you're in a Windows environment: Attach the library D2KWUTIL.PLL and use the win_api_dialog.Select_Printer procedure:
Declare
	v_printer VARCHAR2(250);
	v_port    VARCHAR2(250);
Begin
	Win_Api_Dialog.Select_Printer(v_printer, v_port, FALSE);
End;
D2KWUTIL can be found in %ORACLE_HOME%/Tools/DevDem60/Demo/Forms

Did you get the d2kwutil code from the Oracle Web site? Have you installed it? Did you read its installation and usage guide?
