What you really need to know in most cases is not a printer resolution (is does not really effect the printing from the standpoint of your printing code; is you have two print pages with the same sizes in pixels but different resolutions, the print data to be send is exactly the same).

If you are using System.Drawing.Printing you will ultimately use the class System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument. If you use this class for printing :-), you will have to handle the event System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument.PrintPage, and event arguments of this event will pass the required information in its properties MarginBounds, PageBounds, as well as PageSettings to you handler.
