 Set default printers in Windows NT 3.51

I wrote a program in VB3 which permits the user to specify which of 3
printers is set to be the default. It would write the name of the
printer to the device line in Win.ini. It worked great when we operated
in Win 3.1. Now, however, we have switched over to Win NT 3.51, and I
can't find any of the print settings or device settings in Win.ini.

Any suggestions?

Playing around with it, I found that I can change the settings, but the
driver names are different than before. Once I find out the new names of
the drivers, it should be OK
