MS Access Print Problem - AutoCorrect Doesn't Fix

[artmoffa]

When I access my application's reports, if the printer is changed, the settings are changed.

For example, one report is designed to print on a 4X6 envelope, but when the Windows Default printer is changed, the report settings change to letter.

Chuckster76 responded that the problem might be solved by changing the tools/options/general "Autocorrect" option to no, but that did not solve the problem.

Can you design a report to a standard printer that will maintain settings?

IN my opinion, it would be easier to have the report check the 'selected' (Default) printer. If is not the one you want, save the name to a variable, itterate throught he list of printers untill you find the 'right' one, make it the default, print your "report", and (FINALLY) reset the default to what it was when your started. Sounds like a lot, but the code isn't much more than this description.
