PRB: Programmatically Issuing Print Command May Not Print to Default Printer
When you select a printer in Internet Explorer (on the File menu, click Page Setup, click Printer, and choose a printer that is not the system default), your printer selection is stored in the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup\printer
After you make this selection, Internet Explorer continues to use the printer value that is stored in the registry.
