ITYM "Most Windows programs will, by default, print to the default Windows 
printer.  But if you want to print to something else, you need to select the 
printer's name from a list".

Now, while adding something like "WIN:" by itself to mean "the default 
Windows printer" is possible, the fact that changing Windows to default to a 
different type of printer would cause "bad things" to happen to filePro's 
output, means it might not be a good idea to allow a destination without an 
explicit place to go.
