Printing just one page of a multi-page layout

I've got a layout which will produce 3 pages when the current record is printed. On some occasions, users want to print the first page, the first two pages or all three pages. At the moment, they have to select the number of pages they want in the print dialog.

I'd like to set up a set of scripts that pre-choose which pages of the layout to print so that a single button could print (say) page one of the layout for the 20 records in the current found set. I can achieve this if I define the printer and the pages that I want to print, and then set up a print step that uses print[restore] to recall the settings. However, this then routes the print to that specific printer. Is it possible to select the number of pages to print, but using the users default printer?

The application uses FMP11 on Windows 7 clients with FMP8 server (soon to be FMP11 server), on a Windows Domain managed by Windows Server 2008 with both networked and local printers.

Thanks

Brian
