Default Default printer

We are using Microsoft Word 2003 SP1, SP2, and SP3. Computers are
W2K, XP, and Vista.

Problem: Our computers have multiple printers. If printer A is the
default printer and I want to print the document to printer B. We hit
File...Print and change the printer to printer B. From that point
foward it stays at printer B, as it should. If I leave printer B
selected and close word, the next time I open word Printer B is still
selected. It is not the default print (in the printer list or under
Printers in the Control Panel).

Everything I have read says that when you close word and reopen it, it
should revert back to the default printer. It is only happening in
word, excel is fine. This is happening on all of our computers (100
plus). Is there a setting that I am missing that tells word to use
last used printer and not to revert to default printer on open.
