I am using the following code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show
UserForm1.PrintForm

End Sub

I can show all of the printers attached to my computer, but will not print to any other but the default printer. Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Thank you
You have to set the active printer as for example

Application.ActivePrinter = "PDF995 on Ne00:"

Is this instead of:
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show

Yes. In code you are saying what printer to go to. In the example above, I am sending to PDF995
