Control which printer to send report to

[mattc66 via AccessMonster.com]

Hi All,

I have a shipping database that we use. I have address labels that print to a
label printer and I have the Shipping Doc's that need to print to a laser
printer.

How can I force the Printer by report?
Thanks
Matt

Open the report in design view.
Choose Page Setup from the File menu.
On the middle tab, choose Specific Printer.
Ok the dialog, and save the report.
It will now remember to go to that specific printer.

If you are developing for others, so you don't know ahead of time what
printer they will want to use for a report, see:
Printer Selection Utility
