word 2003: Templates and printers
We have several Word 2003 templates where the drawer output for printing is
specified. These templates were made with a HP Laserjet 3005 as default printer. If we print these templates with e.g. a Canon printer, the drawer settings are changed back to auto select. Is there any way to make templates and define printer settings for different printers? |

Graham Mayor has macros for this purpose at
http://www.gmayor.com/fax_from_word.htm. The particular one you should use as the basis for your work is Sub LaserTray2(). However, you should change that first line to Sub FilePrintDefault(), which will cause it to run when the Print button on the toolbar is clicked. If you want a similar macro that responds to the File Print command on the menu and its Ctrl+P shortcut, you would name it Sub FilePrint(), and change the line Application.PrintOut FileName:="" to Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint).Show. Each template would need to have its macro customized to the proper printer name and paper tray settings as described in the article. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
