Can anyone tell me how a printer can be assigned to a word document
per default? So that different docs have different printers assigned

The short answer: You can't.

The not so short answer: You can create a macro and run this macro to
print from the printer you select:

Sub YourPrinter()
ActivePrinter = "Insert printer name here"
Application.PrintOut
End Sub

Read here for instructions on installing macros:
