Printers - How do I?

A number of questions...

How do I select a specific printer for a report? i.e. Let's say I want to

print badges, on a printer that is designed for badges. However default

reports to not print there.

I know about set printer to name... but is there a better way as users may

not name the same printer on the network with the same name.

How do I select a special paper size i.e. 5 1/2" by 11" wide?

How do I select a specific tray on a printer.. i.e. one tray may have legal

in it the other normal... I need to select based on the report.

I assume some sort of table holding the type of report, and the related

printer would work to store the info... is this the best way to go?

Does the improved report writer in VFP9 help in any of the above issues?

TIA,

Mike
