    Printing string to printer

    I'm having trouble figuring out how to send a string to a label printer (Zebra 2844 or something like that) using a specific font in access. Apparently a lot of my troubles are stemming from the fact that the Printer object is not available in vba, and I'm not sure where to go from here. What I have managed to do is get a list of attached printers and the ports they are attached to so that the user can select a printer, but I have yet to figure out how to send the string I need to to the printer. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    the Printer object is not available in vba
    The Printer Object is available in Access VBA from Access 2002 onward...
