How to select the default printer
Hi all
Here's the scenario:
Whenever the user clicks on the button PRINT an invoice form, the report shouldReport Version:2.5.5.2.7 (I know really old :) ) Form Version: 4.5.7.1.6 OS: Windows Xp with SP2
print directly without showing no preview (is a different button for preview).
I choose the number of copies that must be printed in a table in DB.
Make a list of parameter (for destype, desname, copies, etc.) and call the report. (RUN_PRODUCT)
It is if I take the name of the printer to DB something like \\machine_name\printer_name and assign it to desname, it works very well.
However, instead of picking it from the DB, I want to know if I can get the default name of the printer directly from the machine where the report is running.
Reason: If a printer goes wrong and the user wants to print to a different printer, I don't have to keep on changing the values in the comic book.
All entries/tracks will be appreciatted.
Thank you
Bobin
P.S : I bestow points like cookies ;)Hi Buqa,
Nice to see you in the forum reports ;) if I saw you in the forum of pl/sql.In fact if you want to print to the default printer. Then just the DESTYPE PRINTER setting there. The report will go directly to the default printer and if you mention the DESNAME then it will go to the selected printer you. I mean if the printer selected, you'll pass null, then you can just move the DESTYPE then report will go directly to the default printer.
By NOTHING, I mean not to pass the parameter in the case of the DEFAULT PRINTER.

Why print does not use the default printer?
I have two main printers to use at home and whenever I print a web page, Firefox will automatically print using the default printer. If I select the default printer from the drop-down list, it works very well. I wouldn't select the printer by default every time I want to print.
Try of the reset described here for print.print_printer preference:

Unable to choose the default printer
Original title: System do not select the default printer.
I just added HP Officejet Pro 8620, but does not do by default. My HP Pro 400 is still my printer by default, but every time I print, the 8620 appears as the default even if not selected by default and I need to change it to use the default printer, so that both printers are working properly, my system does not recognize the default printer as the default printer. I played with the default setting, modify the printers and then back to the default, I want to, but who was not good.
Hello
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.
The problem may be due to reasons like print, of any conflict of third party software, virus or malware etc. settings. I suggest you run the printer Troubleshooter and verify.
Step 1: A convenience store is an automated tool that can find and automatically fix problems with your PC.
Troubleshooting of the printer
Step 2: If the problem persists, I suggest you perform the clean boot in order to avoid any conflict of third party software.
Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.
Step 3: Run Microsoft Safety Scanner to find and remove viruses or malware.
The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Note: Data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

Lenovo thinkpad T410s, stock, windows 7 64, ms office 2007, adobe reader, all day
Cannot print to a PictBridge compatible printer (including print them as pdf, xps, etc.) of powerpoint, excel and adobe (at least). This is what happens when I try to print:
-excel, I get the error "current printer is unavailable". When I say ok, it appears a box displays the available printers (updated from the printer list and shows new printers if I install, removes those I removed/uninstalled), but I chose one, say ok and it just goes back to the same error
-powerpoint: I get the error "no printer is installed.
-Word: printing, but it does not show a default printer (drop initially empty). the list of printers (once that you pull-down) remains up-to-date
-adobe reader software: poster old printer printer list and the default is not updated. When I select and press on print, it gives error ('no page selected')I have read that sometimes happens when there is no default printer selected. It's true. I select a default printer, but it doesn't seem to stick. When I run the troubleshooter to fix - it, he confirmed that he could not set default printer (and then gave me some unnecessary insulting suggestions, like going to the site of the printer manufacturer, or fix - it)
I uninstalled reinstalled all printer drivers except the default virtual printers (printing of the document, ms fax, pdf etc.). I checked that the spooler is running (in services)
What can I do to recover the printing feature?
It seems as if it was a corrupt user profile. In the new user profile things seem to work. Thank you. Still a lot of work just to work in the new profile, but not quite as bad as from scratch

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.

How to change the default printer in Thunderbird
I have access to several printers that I use in different places. I have to manually change the choice of printer with each e-mail letter I want to print when I change my location when you use thunderbird. I already changed the default printer in my printers folder. All other programs, including Firefox accept the choice of the default printer. How can I get Thunderbird to accept my default without delete all THE OTHER PRINTERS?
The menu bar, select Tools-Options-Advanced-General
Select the configuration editor
Promise to be careful
Enter the following in the search field: print_printer
When this line appears, right-click and select reset.See if she resumes the new default printer after you restart Thunderbird.
No menu bar? Press the ALT key.

Why the Pages and Numbers do not use the default printer?
Recently, I added a second printer to my home network and selected as the default printer. But when I try to print, the correct printer is selected in the dialog box print only part of the time and apparently depends on which application to print from. I believe that Safari, Mail, Contacts and calendar properly use the default printer, then the Pages and Numbers and instead do not the old printer unless I have change the selection in the dialog box impression every time I print.
How can I get Pages and Numbers to correctly use the right default printer?
The problem that is happening on my machine (OS X El Capitan 10.11.2, 5.6.1 Pages and numbers 3.6.1) and my wife (running Maverick 10.7.5, Pages ' 08 3.0.3 and Numbers ' 08 1.0.3) and has persisted through a reboot. The old printer is a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600, accessible via WiFi. The new printer is a Brother MFC-7340 connected by USB to a Time Capsule that is accessible via WiFi.
In the print... dialog you select
View the Presets...
in the menu presets. In the sheet drops down, uncheck the box marked
Reset the Menu Presets for "Default settings" after printing
Click OK. Then select
Last settings used
or a custom preset that you created in the menu.

HP1510 0 x 00000709 can not set as the default printer
I installed my new HP1510 printer on computer with Windows 7, but I can not set as default in Control Panel printer, get error message 0 x 00000709. This means I can't print a PDF file as my previous printer, which I uninstalled it, is always shown as default in Adobe Reader. I can print emails ok. Please help as I bought the computer to print a PDF file!
Hello lanto17,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that you cannot set the default printer and are experience PDF problems. Please, try the following steps to answer all your questions:
Click Start, type Regedit in the search bar. Right-click on it and choose "Run as Administrator". Now, find the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
You will need to give this key all permissions. To do this:
(a) right click on the key that you need to change and/or delete. Click on "permissions...". »
(b) click on 'Add' in the window that appears.
(c) there will be an empty box under "enter the names of the objects to select. Type "Administrator" (without the quotes), then click on "check names".
(d) an administrator name appears, click 'Ok' when it does.
(e) you should be able to select the profile (click) the administrator under "group or user names. Once you click on it, click on "Advanced".
(f) click the 'owner '.
(g) click on the Administrator profile, then put the checkmark in "replace the owner of subcontainers and objects".
(h) return to the "Permissions" tab, then make sure the Administrator profile is selected.
(i) in the "Permissions" tab, put a check in each box available. Boxes will probably accompany "Include the permissions that can be inherited from the parent to this object" and "replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable of this object.
(j) then click on 'change '. Put a mark chark in "Full control" under allow. Click Ok. Now click on apply (you may receive a message of Security window, simply click 'Yes'), and then click Ok.
(k) out of the registry, and then restart the computer.
The last step is to restart the print spooler. To do this, type services.msc in the search bar. Right-click on it and choose "Run as Administrator". Find print spooler and stop it, then start it.
Now try to set the default printer like PDF files and printing. Let me know what happens. Thank you!
Have a wonderful day!

How can I get Word 2007 to reset the default printer after each draw?
I'm not the most tech savvy person in the world, but I know my way around MS Office well enough; When my boss got a new computer last month, I helped to set up, install the MS Office, etc. Now, she complains constantly that he does not restore the default printer after each draw and "my old computer used to do that for me - I never know where it'll print now."
How can I configure sound MS Word to print from the default printer each time unless otherwise selected?
I have the default printer specified in Windows, but each time she chooses an active printer, MS Word uses the current printer instead of the default printer. I just need to know how to solve this problem?
If you open a doc Office that it allows to print to the printer origonal used when saving this doc.
If you use the Btn Office Orb, you can select the printer

Reset the default printer after each print job.
I wish that my printer to reassign the default printer after each print job. I have a Hp LaserJet 1020 on my desk as my default. Sometimes however, I print on our printer color etc. Then when I go to print again immediately after the color printing - it is (and not my default). I looked in the printer properties, devices, etc. - but do not see where I could update this? Can you let me know. Thank you.
You don't say how you make that decision to change printers. I have two printers, all-in-one (default) HP4135 and HP6122 duplexer.
Example: Leave in MS Office Word 2007 default print would always be. But I can choose a printer to use. With this selection, as long as I stay within this project, the HP6122 could be used. It would default to the HP4135 if I closed the project.
If you go: start, Control Panel, printers, you will see all printers. The default value has a green check mark. Right-click on the printer icon and a menu descends with an extra function "Set as default printer".
