    Default printer

    Is there a way to change the printer that MS Word 2007 uses from the system default? My main aim is to be able to have MS Word direct to a different printer when I am using it's Envelope creation when I am simply printing a #10 envelope (Mailings:Envelopes:Print), which would be even better to be able to specify, but I don't want to ask for too much...

    You mean via VBA? Maybe like this:

    I'm sorry if I posted in the wrong area/forum; I'm just looking for a regular use solution! Some setting in Word to over-ride the default WXP printer setting.

    No, where you posted was fine.

    Just set it in the user interface when you go to Print, and the set it back to the default when you're done.
