I had been using InfoPath 2003 for quite some time now, often printing forms
in PDF format. However when I installed IE7, I could no longer convert the
XML documents to PDF or to the Document Image Writer or send them as a Fax.
Every "Print To" option would send the document directly to the Windows
Default printer, regardless which printer I would select. However, if I
changed the default Windows printer to PDF Distiller, Fax or MS Document
Image Writer, then I could use that format.
Am I missing something? It only behaves like this in InfoPath 2003, all
other Office apps work fine. I have all the up-to-date patches for Office
2003 and XP SP2. Is this an (overlooked) IE7 bug?
How can I resolve this issue without having to constantly change my default
printer every time I want to convert an XML document?

I don't know but I have a similar problem. Infopath 2003 + IE7 +
"PrintTo" option would send the document directly to the
WindowsDefaultprinter, regardless whichprinterI changed
thedefaultWindowsprinterto PDF Distiller, Fax or MS Document. I cant
find any solutions
I just want that the fomr to be printed on thes elected printer
Thank you
