Default printer changes

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

Make sure the printer set as default the power is turned on and the other
printer is off. Usually due to other peripheralls being installed, the
all-in-one
printer will activate. You can disable all printers from starting/loading
in the
startup so that it will only activate the default one when you start to
print. Go to:
Start>run>type MSCONFIG and press OK. Click the startup tab and disable both
of your printers listed, press Apply and Close. Reboot. Good luck. :~)
