Important Note: No matter what format you have chosen to work in, any new document in either format will have the driver of the default format attached.
It is not possible to embed a printer driver into a given format so that new documents based on that format will have the driver associated with it.
When you bring up the Print dialogue, be sure you have the selected the printer driver you want to print to. Saving the document after printing will attach the driver to that specific layout.
