I think we may have to change to something along those lines. At the very least, add a menu option to set our Apps "Default Printer". We had used the "Prompt" as a confirmation of WHERE the print was going, and to give them the option to bail out, in case they realy didn't want to hit print. Some of our reports could be a bit long.
