MicroStation CONNECT; PRINT TO SPECIFIC FOLDER, WHILE WORKING ON A PROJECT

Question

MicroStation CONNECT; IS THERE A WAY TO DEFAULT TO (REMEMBER) THE LAST FOLDER PRINTED TO WITHOUT HAVING TO NAVIGATE TO IT, BY CLICKING ON DIRECTORY & THEN SELECTING THE FOLDER?

Thank you for your help Tom, much appreciated! 
 Just a few notes for anyone else that might read this.... 
 In MicroStation CONNECT version, you navigate as follows; Go to File > Settings > Configuration Variables 
 Also, after clearing out the New Value Box, I had to enter [Undefined] there, in order for it to remember the last folder I was plotting in. 
 Best regards, ~tom

Thomas, 
 On the Main Menu bar, Go to WORKSPACE > CONFIGURATION, In the column on the left select Printing, see what MS_PLTFILES is set to. If it's undefined, it should go to the last folder selected. To undefine, you can select EDIT and clear out the NEW VALUE box

In CE can we make pcf ( project config file) like we could in V8i? 
 Then that would be easy way to define it per project only...
