Vulcano Posts: 5 Rating: (0)	Hi, In Wincc I'm using a print button to make a hardcopy of a screen. The print-out of the screen is sended to the standard printer in windows. So far so good. No i want to make it possible to change the printer, eg when i want to print the hardcopy to a printer on my desk via the network. Therefore i want to open the printer selection interface from windows. The question is how can i make this happen via vbs Thanx Attachment SelectPrinter.jpg (119 Downloads)

For extra information (Look at:How do you create a hard copy printout if it cannot be printed directly?): http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/22056083
