JDE.INI Default Printer

[MarshallB]

Is there a way to set a default printer in the JDE.INI? We are having an
unusual event here where many different users will use the same set of
computers, and I would like to be able to set the printer in the INI.

Thanks in advance,

You can set the default printer by user in the Work with Default printers app. P98616/W98616O. Why would you want the setting in the jde.ini? I believe the jde.ini file gets overlaid if you have to re-install the full package. There are also reason that you may have to tweak the jde.ini file from time to time and deploy out to all users. That's my two cents.

The reason for making the change in the INI is that we are having a special 2 day event where we are going to have about 10 computers set up. There will be about 20 people using these computers and each person will use the computers at random. Depending on where the computer is physically located is where we will want the printer to default. If I set the printers by user they will have to always use the same computer or always remember to change printer at runtime.
