Printer name under Win NT/2000

Hi,

Does anyone have a VI or an idea how to retrieve the "Default printer
name" under Windows NT/2000? I am using LabVIEW 6.02.

Thanks,

Patrick,
I can see where you might want this info, but I know all the Print Report' VIs default to the default printer; however, if you weren't sure which printer was presently set as the default, then it would matter when you print - such as a color printer vs. B/W.

Here are 2 links to some default printer VIs which may help, if not, just use them as info.
