Default Parameters of a printer

Hi,

Is it possible to change the parameters of a printer with VBA ?

My printer can print on both sides and I would like to change the parameters
to print on both sides according to criteria but all automatically.

Thank you for your assistance.

Default Parameters of a printer

The easiest way would be to define another printer driver that would have the
settings to do what you want. Then you just select that using ActivePrinter.

Beyond that you are into the windows API:
