Matthew,

The reason for the gui that is different from the local installation is 
a missing registry value.
It's: "PrinterDriverData\DocUiHideFlags" REG_DWORD 000001

I didn't succeed in copying the settings via printui.dll, but I wrote a 
little program to set the missing value. I think, this list cuts off the 
attachments, so I put it inline. If you cannot compile it, I can send 
you a binary as well.

I can't test, if the printer will work as expected, cause I have no 
ricoh printer - but the GUI looks the same as the local installation.

Greets,
Martin

		exit (1);

	BOOL rc =SetPrinterDataEx( hPrinter, "PrinterDriverData", 
"DocUiHideFlags", REG_DWORD, (LPBYTE)&on, 4 ) ;
	ClosePrinter (hPrinter);

	printf ("Setting printer data to %s: %s\n", argv[1], rc?"ERROR":"SUCCESS");

	return rc;
