Printer shortcuts

[Guest]

Is there a way to make a keyboard shortcut that would toggle between default
printers?

thank you

Do you mean is there a keboard shortcut that would change the default
printer? If this is what you mean there is no shortcut on the keyboard that I
am aware of. Also, you can only have one default printer set.

You can use a script to change the default printer.

----
Printer="Printer name"

Set wm=GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\cimv2")
Set prs=wm.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Printer",,48)
For Each pr in prs
If InStr(pr.Caption,Printer) Then pr.SetDefaultPrinter:Exit for
Next
-----


Then create a shortcut to this script and assign a hotkey to the shortcut.

Good Luck, Ayush.
