Default Default Printer

Is there code that will reference a systems default printer. As of now, i
have code that will print out forms on excel spreadsheets. The problem is,
if a user prints the form to file, a .pdf is created using Adobe. If a user
now wants to print hard copies to the local printer, Excel is still printing
to .pdf. I'm looking for code that will return Excel to printing using hte
systems default printer. I could do this uses the name of the printer on the
computer, but the program will be used in different office areas with
different default printers. So the name of my default printer won't be the
same as another's. Is there a way that Visual Basic can call to a systems's
default printer?

Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
