Yes, you can use wsh to set a default printer:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; Dim oWsh As Object<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; Set oWsh = CreateObject(&quot;Wscript.Netw<wbr />ork&quot;)<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; Call oWsh.SetDefaultPrinter(&quot;Pr<wbr />inter A&quot;)<br />
<br />
But I don't think you can use it to set default orientation and paper size of the printer. To achieve that goal, you need to use a set of Printer Control APIs.

Set Printer Defaults - Really important

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
