Set System Default Printer

HI!

Anyone knows how to set the windows default printer.

Hi

Use Printer.trackdefault Property

Good Luck

You could try the following:

dim pDefault as Printer
dim pPrinter as printer
dim PrinterName as string

' Save the original default
set pDefault = Printer
' Tell it what to look for
PrinterName = "Name of the printer you want"
' Set the new default
For Each pPrinter In Printers
If pPrinter.DeviceName = PrinterName Then
Set Printer = pPrinter
End If
Next
' Restore the old default
set Printer = pDefault
