What is the roadblock here? There are so many options depending on the actual business requirement...

As a start, if you print manually in VT70 you can set Printer default. This makes sense if there are absolutely no rules who prints where (which is rarely true) or in exceptional cases - e.g. the printer in Dispatching just broke and you use the printer in the warehouse to reprint the documents.

Or you could use the default printer from the user master record - e.g. if each user has his/her own printer (which is uncommon, but I have seen it in some companies).

Or you could have separate condition records or you could use print parameters for shipment - if these users are responsible for different TPPs for example.

Or you could determine printers via exit - this makes sense if the rules for determining the correct printer are really complex, but do not change frequently over time.

Probably I missed some options, but without accessing a system right now, these are the ones that I can recall.
