I'm binding the PageMediaSize collection of a PrintQueue to the ItemSource of a ComboBox (This works fine). Then I'm binding the SelectedItem of the ComboBox to the DefaultPrintTicket.PageMediaSize of the PrintQueue. While this will set the selected value to the DefaultPrintTicket.PageMediaSize just fine it does not set the initially selected value of the ComboBox to the initial value of DefaultPrintTicket.PageMediaSize This is because the DefaultPrintTicket.PageMediaSize reference does not match any of the references in the collection. However I don't want it to compare the objects by reference, but instead by value, but PageMediaSize does not override Equals (and I have no control over it). What I'd really like to do is setup a IComparable for the ComboBox to use, but I don't see any way to do that. I've tried to use a Converter, but I would need more than the value and I couldn't figured out how to pass the collection to the ConverterProperty. Any ideas on how to handle this problem.

Here's my xaml

<ComboBox x:Name="PaperSizeComboBox" 
          ItemsSource="{Binding ElementName=PrintersComboBox, Path=SelectedItem, 
                        Converter={StaticResource printQueueToPageSizesConverter}}"
          SelectedItem="{Binding ElementName=PrintersComboBox, 
                         Path=SelectedItem.DefaultPrintTicket.PageMediaSize}"
          DisplayMemberPath="PageMediaSizeName"
          Height="22"
          Margin="120,76,15,0"
          VerticalAlignment="Top"/>

And the code for the converter that gets the PageMediaSize collection

public class PrintQueueToPageSizesConverter : IValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter,
                          System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
    {
        return value == null ? null :
            ((PrintQueue)value).GetPrintCapabilities().PageMediaSizeCapability;
    }

    public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, 
                          System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }
}
