• How can I PERMANENTLY change the default printer to Adobe PDF files using my physical printer instead of SIMPLY printing a pdf in a new PDF file?

  Whenever I restart Adobe Reader DC default printer is automatically reset to print any PDF file to the "print to PDF file" as the default printer.  How can I change the "default printer" always default to be my physical default printer, instead of "print of PDF?»»»

  PRINTING a document which is already a pdf file to a pdf file is absolutely ridiculous and stupid for the following reasons:

  1. If you want to save a document that is already a pdf in different PDF file, you can use the function "Save as" in the file menu.
  2. If the user select "Print" to PRINT a file they ther NOT try to SAVE a file.  (We'll give credit to the average user to understand the difference between PRINTING and SAVING of a document).
  3. Most of the users do not need to duplicate the storage of a document on their drives to computer
  4. Users of mobile devices, by the fact that they have already downloaded the PDF file have already used storage space of EXTREMELY valuable and LIMITED memory with the download of origin and most certainly so NOT to use more than this space such a resource limited printing!

  As an engineer, hardware and software for the past 40 + years to really understand the value of making easy allow the end user to change the configuration of something as simple as the setting for the default printing device to use!

  For the record, I searched the online help as well as the forum Adobe Reader community for a thread that explains how to change the printer by default so that whenever I starts the Adobe service it will automatically use the printer default physical connected to my computer to "PRINT" any PDF document.  If I missed something that deals with this problem please point me about it, if no such band rolling exists, then please tell me before making this change.

  Thank you for your help in this matter!

• HP LaserJet Pro MFP M125-M126: cannot set the default printer

  Hello

  We have HP LaserJet Pro M125 - M126 PCLmS network MFP all in one printer, as the installation of all users was a success and was working fine the day of installation, after a day all users face the question cannot set default pritner, cannot print, all users are faced with question at a time ,

  quick response is appreciated,

  Hi @darshan9 ,

  I see that you have problems affecting the default printer for users and you cannot print over the network.
  I'd love to help you.

  Do you mean the configuration of individual computers with the printer on the network users, or a computer with multiple users?

  You have administrative rights on the computer to make changes?

  What is the name and the product number of your printer? How can I find my model number or product number?

  Download and run the Print and Scan doctor. It will diagnose the problem and could solve it automatically. http://www.hp.com/go/tools > using HP diagnostic tools for printers under Windows HP.

  I suggest you to check if you have another account user or an administrative account.

  I also suggest to create a new user account and check if you are able to set the default printer.

  Create a user account. Create a user account.

  If you're still having problems, run the Fixit tool. Diagnose and automatically fix problems printing and printer.

  What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

  If there is anything else I can help you, let me know.

  Good day!
  Thank you.

• Cannot change the default e-mail program

  I tried to change the default email program in Vista to Thunderbird by following the instructions found on many sites (Control Panel, programs by default, set your default programs, and then I select Thunderbird, then I click on "set this program as default").

  However, when I try to send a document as an attachment directly from the application in question (Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Word, etc.), I get an error message that says: "no profiles have been created.  To create a new profile, use the Mail icon in Control Panel.  I believe that used to work at some point, although I did have this computer for a long time, so maybe it's that he has never worked on this computer.

  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  It is usually the case with an update of Office, it will reset Outlook as the e-mail Manager by default and assign it all by default available values.  You will need to return to "default programs |" Set your default programs and reset Thunderbird as default and there all available default values assigned.  It is usually a good idea to set Thunderbird as default under "default programs |" The value of program access computer settings by default and after finishing upward on the tab "Set your default programs" by Ramesh was mailed. Please do not forget that * every * Office Update, you receive will probably reset Outlook as Manager default e-mail, and you will need to repeat this process whenever they do.

• Change the default print for all printing on OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus

  OfficeJet Pro 8600 more

  10.8.3 OS iMac

  I want to change the value print factory set in the default print setting. I want the documents I send to the printer via AirPrint to print in black and white, not color. But the 8600 by default is always color. Sometimes, I am able to change this setting for individual tasks, but sometimes I can't. I wish that the default to be always in black and white. Is this possible?

  The steps above refer only to the Mac, indeed.

  AirPrint provides all color configurations, but only allow printing in color... all available Airprint parameters are listed in the What are the printing options are available? section below:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02623193

  You can install the HP ePrint app and print through it, like black and white, know that color options are available for the types of documents only (PDF, TXT, MS Office files, Web sites or email), but not for the types of photo files:

• Cannot set the default printer. error 0 X 00000709

  Hi all

  Cannot set any printer as the default printer. An error message appears, error 0 X 00000709. I have tried to use a guide on the Forums, on the Windows system registry, still does not work. And I couldn't print anything using the PDF, but Words of Microsoft Excel and Notepad are able to print. In addition "format the hard drive, create a user and Fix a user profile is corrupted", is there a solution? Help will be very appreciated.

  Thank you

  Aaron Kwan

  Hi Aaron,

  I appreciate your efforts to solve the problem.

  What is the brand and model of the printer?

  This problem can occur if the wires that are not connected correctly, due to corruption drivers, drivers incompatible, if print spooler service is not started, because of problems with the printer and the printer, missing updates settings.

  Method 1:
  I suggest you to run the fixit and check if it helps.

  Diagnose and automatically fix problems printing and printer
  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/printing_problems/

   

  Method 2:
  If the problem persists, I suggest you temporarily disable the security software of the computer and check.

  Disable the antivirus software.
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

   

  Method 3:
  If the problem persists, I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.

  
  Note: try all the steps except the resolution of problems.

• HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus change the default print settings.

  I would like to change the default settings for printing to the project and in grayscale. Is there anyway to do then do not forget to do the changes for each printed page?

  Using Windows XP OS.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hello AllAmerican1347

  If you go to the control panel and printers and fax machines, you should see the printer there. Right-click on the printer and select Properties. If you define the settings here, it should be the global default.

  Tip If you want to print ink black only some printers require that you select black ink only after choosing grayscale.

• OfficeJet 6700 Premium error 0 x 00000709 cannot set the default printer

  I bought my new HP Officejet 6700 Premium on February 1, 2013. I use a HP Pavilion dm4 laptop under Windows 7 Home Premium. The installation seems to give no problem. However I'm unable to set the default printer and have the error message 0 x 00000709. Excel, Adobe, Outlook does not allow me to print.

  I spoke to the HP printer Department February 1st and they sent me some software of diagnosis which I sent back. I called again on 6 February and was told my problem was always open and they were trying to reproduce the problem (it appears on the net without a patch work). It is now February 10, and I hope the good people of HP to recall with a solution soon. You try to run a small business with no printer is not ideal.

  Someone at - it else ecountered this problem, and you have a solution.

  I ran HP utility, installed uninstalled the driver etc etc etc.

  I seem to have fixed the problem by changing in the registry keys. If HP wants a donation to charity, I would be happy to provide it to them :-)

• Cannot change the default program

  1 HP Pavilion dv6

  2 Windows 7

  3. "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

  4. Windows update itself

  5. I was always able to change the default program, until Windows has created an another update (which still live with my settings).

  When I right click > Open with > choose by default the program give me this vague and frustrating error message indicating 'Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

  This is a load of ponyfeathers, because I am the only user and administrator of my laptop. I tried also to the solutions, but the error is apparently used in multiple areas of screw - rises of Windows. This error applies to all files.

  I am still able to go to administrative tools and change the defaults from there, but I'm not THAT tech savvy and I don't like playing with the pieces dark and deep programming from my laptop.

• Mac: How do I change the default printer by application

  Hello

  I use a HP OfficeJet 8600 and impossible to find a way to set the default print by application options. When I use my Windows machine he remembers the print by application settings (for example, if I print from Word, it prints the ordinary quality, if I select print in Photoshop, print quality Photo paper).  On the Mac (OS 10.8.5, Macbook Pro) I can't find any way to do it. If I put a print job in Word and the last used printer setting (from Photoshop) is Photo paper, then Word prints using this and uses a lot of ink and is incredibly slow.  Any help?

  Thank you...

  Hello again @winm!

  Thanks for the reply!

  I understand that when Windows printing software in memory settings for Word and Photoshop.  On the side of the things Mac, you will need to make the preset and choose it every time.  You may just be better to choose a quick project for Word and photo paper for Photoshop as you say.  The software in the Mac won't remember automatically.
