Macro Print To Default Printer
Mar 16, 2009
i have a macro that loads a userform for previewing and printing selected sheets. The macro works fine for previewing sheets but when i choose the print button the marco trys to save the file as a .mdi, i want this to select the default printer on the pc instead, the excel file will be onpened on many different pcs so the printers will be different on each machine, hence why i want a default printer selected. This is the section of code from the form

I have a spreadsheet where I am trying to print barcode labels. The barcode is found in cell A1. I have looked in a lot of places and I can't really figure out exactly how to do it. This is the code that I have so far but it gives me an error. The printer name should be right. Some of this code I just copied from another thread.

Is there a Macro to automatically print the selected print area (print area is also established within the macro itself) to a user's default printer; whatever that printer may be? Note that this printer and/or printer name could change depending on the user.
I would like this to actually select and print to the default printer without Excel having to ask you. I don't even want the "OK" box to show up if possible. I just want them to run the macro, execute all it's duties, and print, all in 1 shot.

I am trying to swith between different printers to print out sheets within a single workbook. Recording the macro doesn't work very well and the code I found online doesn't work either (error: object doesn't support property).
How can I set this up to be a dynamic printer setting?
Code I tried:

I want to automate (with the click of a macro button, or hot key sequence) is to:
· take a pre-set print area (which is always the same – 1 page wide x 1 page tall)
· send to the printer
· select the PDF printer from the list (not the default printer for the computer)
· Automatically change the save PDF file name to “(Cell A1) – Weekly Update – (Today’s Date).pdf”
· Change location to save file on Desktop
Feels like a pretty lofty goal for a macro to do all of that – please let me know if that is even possible to set up.

I need an assistance in setting up a VBA for the default printer in my office. The issue is I want my spreadsheet to be set up to wherever I open the spreadsheet at any computers in the facility. I want the sheet to be printing out directly at the printer in my office only. Is there a way to do this?

We have printer mailboxes setup for all of the employees and sometimes the print settings get saved in the excel files. This means that when another employee uses the file their prints get sent to the wrong mailbox. We have hundreds of files like this and it causes all kinds of problems with prints going to wrong mailboxes!
Obviously their default print settings are all set to their own mailboxes.
Is there some way, using vba, to get an excel file to go back to using the user's default printer settings instead of the ones saved in it's file? (or get it to remove the printer settings saved in it's file). That way I could just make an application level open event to fix the problem! Either that or some way, in vba, of changing a user's storage box number for a specific printer.

I have a workbook with 150-some-odd sheets, each with a store number. I would like to loop through each sheet & print that sheet to the printer with the same name in my printers & faxes queue.
(eg. sheet 9604 would print to printer name oki9604)

I have done a userform which allows the user to select printing to each section(All, A, B or C) of the report to either paper size A3 or A4 looking something like below -
Print All A3 A4 (these buttons are option buttons)
Print A A3 A4
Prtint B A3 A4
Print C A3 A4
I have coded and part recorded a macro to change the paper size to either A3 or A4 depending on the user's selection.
The problem i have is if i take out the print command, it seems to change the paper sizes as it should but when i print it prints to the same size as the previous print i did, regardless of what was selected on the userform.
I have a printer with multiple tray sizes, and since I need to change paper sizes, I assume i need to change trays as well.
Below is the two macros -
'''''''''''''Set Print area and print to A3'''''''''''''''''
Private Sub PrintAllA3_Click()
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim LastCol As Long
With ActiveSheet
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
LastCol = .Cells(2, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
End With

I have a macro that prints out several worksheets. My problem is that I want to print these worksheets to a specific color printer. There are many different users and most of them will have a black-and-white printer setup as their default. I want to be able to print using the ip address of the color printer.
I have tried setting the active printer using:
Application.ActivePrinter = "\WP010110.117.3.36"
with little luck... This seems like such a simple thing! I have done a lot of research and can't find a good solution although I have seen the question raised several times!
Ozgrid has been a great source of information and solutions in the past. Please help again!

We have a an existing spreadsheet which uses a query from Excel to Sage Line50 Accounting software to create labels for stock items. The number of times a label is printed is dictated by the number of items that are required for a particular sales order.
For example -
1006abc 100 No.
2003abc 20 No.
The program would produce 100 labels for item code 1006abc, and would produce 20 labels for item number 2003abc.
However we have recently acquired a heavy duty industrial printer which prints to labels on a continuous roll and I am unable to alter the spreadsheet to work with the new printer layout.
I have attached the spreadsheet and, I hope, the VBA code. PLease also see this link to my previous post - Print Labels Dependant on Content

The below code opens up the printpreview window. This does not allow to select the correct (or change) printer it will automatic use the default printer.
Is there a way for the code to open the print window so I can change the printer and select number of copies?
Code:
Sub Print_Button()
Dim ws As Worksheet, cell As Range
Set ws = Sheets("main")
Set cell = Range("g2000").End(xlUp)
Do Until cell.Value ""
Set cell = cell.Offset(-1, 0)
Loop
ws.PageSetup.PrintArea = ("A2:" & cell.Address)
ws.PrintPreview
End Sub

Is there any way to create a default template that will apply all the same formatting, print options, etc to every new workbook that I create. I guess what I am asking is a way to change the excel defaults for text type, border size/color, etc.

I've found some code which works to print certain pages with value in cell A1 but I need to print dynamic ranges on some of the sheets as they will have filters on so the rows ranges will be different each time.
So far this is what I have but the dynamic range part is not working:
VB:
Sub Print_All_Worksheets_With_Value_In_A1()
Dim Sh As Worksheet
Dim Arr() As String
Dim N As Integer

I have found a macro which disables all print features in excel. I have rwo other codes to print. When I put this macro, It also disables the print from the other macro. How can I use this code so that normal print features will be disabled but if someone takes the print from the macros, Print will be allowed. The code which disables the print is given below:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
If PrtOK Then
Cancel = False
Else
MsgBox "Can't print from here!"
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
