>I have an application that uses a receipt printer. The report to print to this printer is only 3" wide. I also have other full sized reports that I wish to print. I have tried setting the default printer to the receipt printer in windows and then using the set printer to command. This gives me an error that it can not access the print spooler.

I don't see why it would not work, unless you have a problem in the name.
E.g.
set printer to name (myReportName)
is supposed to work.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
