subject: Specifying a printer

Hello all,
I am not sure how to specify a printer in vb code.  Here is what is going
on...

1. Client has 3-part forms that are printed on a dot-matrix printer.
2. The application prints to the default printer for all other printing
functions, but for the 3-part forms, I need to send output to the dot
matrix.

I would like to put the printer info for the dotmatrix printer in an .ini
file.  I really do not want to screw with the registry if possible.

Any web resources, thoughts, code, etc would be very helpful.
Thank you.
