Where am i wrong? When i select the paper size it doesn't change the size in the document

C++

pageSetupDialog1->PageSettings = gcnew System::Drawing::Printing::PageSettings;
	pageSetupDialog1->PrinterSettings = gcnew System::Drawing::Printing::PrinterSettings;
	pageSetupDialog1->ShowNetwork = false;
	System::Windows::Forms::DialogResult result = pageSetupDialog1->ShowDialog();
	if (result == System::Windows::Forms::DialogResult::OK)
	{
		printDocument1->DefaultPageSettings->PaperSize = pageSetupDialog1->PageSettings->PaperSize;
