Print Excel sheet with specific papertype

Hello community,
probably it’s a basic question, but I didn´t find the solution by myself.

I build an vi, that opens an excel template, fills it with information’s and print it out. Everything works fine. The problem is, to tell the printer programmatically that it is a sticky label instead of a normal paper. Because the printer knows the paper feed where the sticky labels are located.

If I print the document manually, everything is fine, because I can select the paper type via the printer driver.

How can I select the paper type programmatically?

 

Thank you very much

I am not sure if there's way for this in LV.

However, maby it would be sufficient to create copy of printer with other default settings in windows, and use this one instead?
