Ok, the simple way:

lnPrinters = aprinters(laPrinters)
for lnI = 1 to lnPrinters
   if 'my known part of printer name' $ lower (laPrinters[m.lni,1])
        set printer to name (laPrinters[m.lnI,1])
        exit
   endif
next

report form ...

- from the top of my head, not tested

Or you may prompt user for the printer with GETPRINTER() command.
