Change default printer when printing many pdfs

I'm writing an application which prints out many pdfs at once (hundreds) according to a list the user makes.  i.e. they pick what they want to print from a listbox.

I'm using the following code to print the pdfs which works great:

                    Dim adobeProc As Process
                    Dim startinfo As New ProcessStartInfo("C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe")
                    startinfo.FileName = filename
                    startinfo.Verb = "print"
                    adobeProc = Process.Start(startinfo)
                    Application.DoEvents()
                    adobeProc.Close()

However, I would like to give the user the option of picking which printer to send the print job to.  Is this possible

Hi

I need to do the same, but I look many ways to do it and so far the only way i found it, is to do it using a component (http://www.pdftron.com/net/index.html) and using some .net functions (using System.Drawing, using System.Drawing.Printing)

the main problem is that the component cost.

but you can check in the page they got some examples to print a pdf whitout using Process. I you like I got some code in C# to choose the printer.
