It is leither more complicated than that.

When you click the button in your configuration the app comes up with the
correct (so none-default) printer, however when you select the properties
page in this window, the default printer pops up again.

However I seem to have solved it, by using the following construct:
  with Printer do begin
    PrinterIndex := ListBox1.ItemIndex;
    SetPrinter(PChar(Printers[PrinterIndex]), nil, nil, 0);
  end;

Is this the correct way to walk? Or am I maybe missing some point?

BTW, was this problem not known yet? Or is it just me?
