How can I print XPS without dialog?

I try to print to XPS printer (it's not my default printer), but the program opens me a dialog. Can I skip the dialog? This is the code:

            pSettings = new PrinterSettings();                
            pSettings.PrintFileName = "test.xps";       
            RawPrinterHelper.SendStringToPrinter(pSettings.PrinterName, toSend);                
            spcn = new StandardPrintController();
            printDocument1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = "Microsoft XPS Document Writer";
            printDocument1.PrintController = spcn;                                    
            printDocument1.PrintPage +=
                new PrintPageEventHandler(printDocument1_PrintPage);
            printDocument1.Print();
