I'm having the problem I've seen others report here; I use three different
printers (2 hardware, 1 software PDF creator), and whenever I use one of the
non-default printers for two or three print jobs from inside Word, it resets
the system default printer to the one I'm using temporarily. Word 2000 never
did this. Neither does Wordperfect. Firefox keeps the last printer used as
its own, internal default printer, but it doesn't change the system default
printer. Why does Microsoft have to assail us with these infuriating bugs?

Graham, I've seen your macro toolbar workaround, and it's not what I need
for this situation. I need to know if there's some way to keep Word from
resetting the default printer, which it has no business doing. I'm on SP2 of
Office 2003. Have any of the hotfixes issued since SP2 addressed this problem?
