Open that report in design view and then click on "File" and choose "Page
Setup".  It is possible it get set accidentally when the report was
designed.

Subject: [AccessD] Default Printer for Access Report


I have a reporting tool built in Access (2002) that is essentially a wizard
where users pick a report, set criteria and then see their output.  There
are nearly 100 reports in the app.  When a user choses to print a report,
the default printer that comes up in the print dialog box is the default
printer set on their machine, EXCEPT for one of the reports.  On that one
report only, the default printer that comes up in the dialogue box is a
different printer.  All users get this different printer.  I did not write
any code or make any settings to indicate printer choice.  What could be
happening?  How can I get this one report to print to the user's default
printer?

Note:  The only way that users can print a report is with a toolbar PRINT
button that I brings up the dialogue box.  There is no file menu from the
reports and there is no button with a printer icon that sends reports
straight to the printer.
