Roaming profiles & default printer?

We have a domain with S2K3 and roaming profiles. We have multiple computers and printers. Depending on the location, each 'computer' has a particular default printer. When different users with their particular profile log onto a computer, the default printer changes as per the profile that is loaded.
We want the default printer to stay the same for each computer NO MATTER WHICH PROFILE IS LOADED. We can't find a registry entry or even a policy that with override the profile.
