Tying document to specific printer, overriding default?

M

Michael Neal

Is there a way to force a document to override the Windows default printer
and always go to a different printer? Apparently this can be accomplished
via macro, but I was hoping for something simpler-- something in document
properties, e.g.

The app is Word 2000. My user wants to always send certain documents to the
color printer, ignoring her default B&W laser printer.

Thanks for reading me.

nothing built-in I've heard of would do that.
