In OS X the printer is chosen from the print dialog rather than from the Page Setup dialog. So issue your print command like this:
print this card with dialog
That will allow the user to choose a printer. There is no way in either OS 9 or OS X to choose a printer without user intervention.
The problem with allowing the user to change it is that they are bound to make mistakes, especially when in a hurry. This will lead to lots of forms and paper being printed wrong and then the need to rectify it plus reprint again, leading to further delays.
I know there is a way to do this in 4th Dimension but I'm hoping to avoid having to do my development in 4D instead of Revolution.
don't know if these will do what you need but they were easy to find with google.
