Need to keep Report Printer from changing to Default

[Jim S]

I have a report we are trying to always print to a specific network printer.
The Access 2007 page setup option allows me to select a radio button for
default printer or other printer and then specify the printer. However, the
setting always returns to default printer even if I save the database and
report. This causes margins etc to change back to the dafault printer
setting. How can a preserve the printe selected?

Hi Jim,

If you don't mind using some coding you could take a look at this link:

I don't know why the regular chosen option keeps popping back to the default
settings. I can verify it though because i've tried and other users
experience the same issue.

and as a follow up see the thread earlier in this group "select a specific
printer" where Allen has a pointer to his website you could use..

Thanks, I used Allen's module in that thread and it worked great.
