Take a look at this UT FAQ : http://www.levelextreme.com/wconnect/wc.dll?FournierTransformation~2,33,Forum=5,29,552

Especially the deepest-indented part.(The REPLACE command) This piece clears the printer information from the FRX but leaves the ORIENTATION piece intact. Usually you can do this once before compiling your project but this solution takes care of it at each build.

You would have to accommodate for a way in which the user chooses a printer though.
