How do I find out what the default printer is?
From what I've read in MSDN I can set the default printer for my application by:
Set objPrinter = Printers(i)
But how do I find out which is the default printer so I can set it back to that once I'm done printing?
Is there another way of printing to a printer without setting it as a default printer?
I've got several DataReports in my application but some of them need to go to different printers. I guess I'm just floundering about looking for the best way to do this...
Thanks...

Ok. Related to this is another question:
My application will have to print on a network printer. How can I implement a 'setup'-type process whereby I can specify, for a given client computer, what the network printer it should print to.
Clearer. My application has to print one report on a printer attached to a server on the network. All clients will print that specific report to that specific printer. I envision a process whereby I can go into a Preferences section of my application and specify the target printer for that particular report. Since the clients may have the printer attached with different names I cannot assume that it will always have the same name regardless of the client (and therefore cannot hardcode it, which wouldn't be smart anyway...)
Ideas?

Can't you just use the common dialog control and use
Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
CommonDialog1.ShowPrinter
End Sub
