  Beware these solutions indicate the change of information in registry (very dangerous if you don't know what you're doing). If you are not familiar with the registry or have never been here before that I would suggest seeking additional support in some way (local / Microsoft IT / PC repair service, etc.).

  Good luck!

• Cannot have DEFAULT printer using Windows 8

  I installed the network printer device, which is attached to another computer, and also has a direct network connection to the local subnet.  When I'm on the system myself, I can do what I want.  But, if my wife is recorded so it cannot be the default device.  In fact the device does not even appear for it in WORD.  When you check the devices and look at the printer, the device is here.  When you right click on the printer, the list is very short and does not include "Set as default printer".  She can even watch the print queue.  She and I are the directors of PC.  So, she should have the right to do what she must do.  Please help me understand what the problem with Windows 8.

  My solution: I changed the USB port. Which might work for one or the other. Good luck.

• Cannot install network printer on Windows 7. Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver. All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions? How can I fix it?

  Cannot install network printer on Windows 7.  Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver.  All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions?  How can I fix it?
  Windows Server 2008 network.  Printers have ip addresses. Install the drivers from the Print Manager.  /Terminal Server Workgroup installation.

  It's the same situation with XP.  The print driver names must match.  If you notice the name of the printer driver that uses XP is a name different from the one that is installed when you plug in the device on the Windows 7 computer.  This is just my assumption, please correct me if this isn't the case.

  The real solution is to install a 32-bit driver on the XP machine that uses the same name that the 64-bit driver and share a printer using this driver or find a 64-bit driver that uses the same name as the 32-bit driver installed on XP and install the driver on XP.

• I cannot keep Adobe Acrobat as my default printer my Windows 10 Pro operating system.  Whenever I restart my system, it is by default in the desktop printer.

  I cannot keep Adobe Acrobat as my default printer my Windows 10 Pro operating system.  Whenever I restart my system, it is by default in the desktop printer.

  One of the possibilities for your deliverance is a questionable feature on by default in Windows 10, changing your default printer to be everything you've printed on last.

  Go to the Windows 10 Settings of the PC and from there, select Printers & Scanners. Note the option to Let Windows manage my default printer. Make sure that this option is set to Off which is not the default. Once you set this option to Off, then set the driver Adobe PDF as a default. Windows hide more with her!

  PS: Yes, it's dark and a pain, but Adobe had no permission in this option and cannot turn by if or turn off!

• Set up a default printer in Windows Gallery

  It is possible to select a default printer in the Windows Gallery?  I configured the printer I want by default in Control Panel and other programs have updated this change (i.e. Word now goes first on my default printer).  However, in the Windows Gallery, change seems no impact.

  Is there such a thing as a "default printer" in the Gallery?  It's just list all available printers?

  -Sandy

  Hi Sandy,

  Please post on the forum.

  Windows Photo Gallery is a part of the Vista and it uses some default printer you choose under printers in your control panel.  You can try uninstalling the printer completely and reinstall it again.

  Hope that helps, please post back and we do know.
