Printing image files to specified printer

[FoxFire5]

Can anyone tell me how i can print an image file (for example a tif file) to a specified printer?
For this moment i use the shell command to print these files. This command will use the default printer of the server. My question is: is there a way to use an other printer (different than the default printer) to do this?

I have inherited a program from a Senior program that I think does what you want to do??? Here goes:

AppToRun = "C:\WINNT\System32\CMD.exe"
'//set Command Line Parameters
'//The "/C" Tells Windows to Run The Command then terminate
'//The Command Line (CMD.exe)
ParamForApp = " /C lpr -S (IP address of printer) -P raw -o i " & Sourcename
'//Make new Directory Called 'New_Folder'
'//Build Command string
CmdLine = AppToRun & ParamForApp
'//Shell App And Wait for It to Finish
ExecCmd CmdLine

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This code goes along with the module below:

Option Explicit
'//public Constants
Public Const NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS = &H20&
Public Const INFINITE = -1&
'//public Types
Public Type STARTUPINFO
cb As Long
lpReserved As String

Actually, I just found this and you don't need the module for it:

ParamForApp = " /C lpr -S (printer IP Address) -P raw -o i " & Sourcename
AppToRun = "C:\WINNT\System32\CMD.exe"
x = Shell(AppToRun & ParamForApp, vbHide)

The sourcename is just the name of the file...in my program the use picks it from a directory search.
