Not everything I do at work revolves around Excel. Only the fun parts.
You could use:

Code:
application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrinterSetup).Show

before the PrintOut lines.

You can show the printer setup dialog from code:

Code:
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrinterSetup).Show

This code provided gets me halfway to where I'd like to be for selecting a printer prior to printing in my Excel sheet.

Is there additional line codes to where the printer I selected stays the default for the remainder of the time I am in the Excel sheet?
