Selecting Printer or Winfax using code?

Is it possible to present the user with an choice when pressing, say, a
"Print" command button of sending the job (report) to the default printer,
or to Winfax? Currently the operators are using their system Print Settings
to change the default from Printer to Winfax before each job. Seems clumsy?
The Front end is in Runtime. I seem to recall some code posted a while back
that when the Winfax option was chosen the default printer (say HP etc) was
identified, the job sent to Winfax, and the default printer reset (to say
HP) for use with other applications.
I do not need to send to Winfax via DDE etc - only to send the print job to
Winfax for the operator to manually enter send-to numbers etc.
The DoCmd.PrintOut goes to the default printer?

It is a "You choose Print to" function I am looking for.

Any ideas appreciated,

WSF
