my default printer problems

I had changed my printer (twice) in the last two days because I can't seem to set as the default printer. I thought it was a problem with the printer originally so I bought another and encounter the same problem. When I try to set it as the default printer, I get the message. ' Operation could not be completed error 0 X 00000709. Other messages that I get when I try to solve the problem are "The Active Directory Domain Services is currently unavailable." I tried to set as default through Notepad, but which does not and in outilsOutlook when I hover over the printer button it say my old printer (I deleted and all software) HP Officejet 63000 is the default value. Can anyone help

    Re: VMware Fusion 3.1 / Snow Leopard / Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I have a problem with my printer by default in Windows virtual via VMware Fusion. The printer that works is hp LaserJet 1320 PCL5 and the printer is not working is series #: 1 HP LaserJet 1320. During booting of Windows natively via Boot Camp, the PCL5 version is defined as the default value and works correctly. But I was not able to set the default printer in the virtual Windows via VMware Fusion.  When I put PCL5 in virtual Windows, then re-start virtual Windows by default, the default value is always changing series #: 1. I even tried to delete the printer from the series #1 virtual Windows, but after re-virtual Windows startup, the printer series #: 1 reappears as the default printer. It is heavy, because I still have to manually select the printer PCL5 printing virtual Windows via VMware.

    I've included two screenshots with this poster forum that shows how to select the default printer and the choice of two printers that does not exist on my computer. I have the latest driver available for this printer as well.

  • View Client default printer problem

    Hello

    I have a group of users who use virtual desktops.  They have printers connected to their jobs the.  An application is running in the virtual office which MUST have a specific network printer set as the default printer to work properly.  However, when a user connects to their virtual office, their local printer is set as the default and the user must manually change the printer.   Rather than change the user of the printer, I wrote a VBS script that runs every 10 minutes that defines the correct default printer on the VD.

    This set works very well for most users, but one of my users has a problem where the default printer will change to its RDP redirected printer randomly throughout the day.  Users must have the ability to print to their local printer, so disable the printer RDP redirection is not an option.

    Is their any way to activate the redirection with RDP printer, but don't have NO RDP change the default printer in the virtual office?

    Thank you!

    There is a group policy setting that can help:

    In a GPO - redirection of data Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Terminal Services / ClientServer

    There is a setting for - "do not set default client printer to be default printer in a session.

    I think that's maybe what you are looking for. There are also a few other settings with which you can play.

    I hope this helps.

  • How can I fix a printer problem flashing causing an error message when I try to print an email from Thunderbird?

    This problem "and goes". When I get the error message, the 'Documents' page?

    Looks like you got Microsoft XPS Document Writer selected instead of your printer.
    As Matt said this isn't an error in Thunderbird. This is the error of the user by selecting the incorrect printer. After the opening of the printer dialog box, Thunderbird is done. It is at this time of your printer and your operating system. Make sure that your printer is displayed in the dialog box and not the XPS writer.
    If you have by mistake fact writer XPS your default printer using the control panel to fix this.

  • the printer that is displayed when I hit print is not my default printer

    I can print from my documents or desktop but when I open firefox and try printing it opens a print with a fax like my printer window. I can hit the arrow down and see my printer but it does not allow me to select. My default is the right printer

    Firefox has its "own ideas. about who is the default printer Firefox uses last used as the "default" printer in Firefox.

    Simply select a different printer and when you print from this printer, Firefox uses this 'default' printer until you select and use another printer in Firefox.

    If you cannot select the printer you want in Firefox, try to do the reset of the printer as described here:

  • How can I make a printer the default printer?

    I have several printers, but I want my b & w laser printer is the default, especially for sites that does not give me an impression box with options. Currently, some sites send data to my bubble jet all-in-one, a printer, I'd rather NOT use.

    I had the same problem, with the return to an all in one printer that I use rarely, ignoring the Firefox default laser printer. I cured it by removing the all-in-one and printing from Firefox. The next time I rebooted, Windows "found new hardware", but Firefox remembered the laser as a default printer.

    I encountered the same problem with my HP F4280 All in one and figured out what the problem was.  I am using Windows 7 then the following steps work for this OS well its probably similar for Vista users.

    Click the Pearl icon (Start), and then click devices and printers

    Double-click your printer icon to open the HP Center

    Under Printer Actions, click on customize it your printer link

    Click the Advanced tab

    Click on the button to default print (lower-left)

    If you haven't already done so, create a custom shortcut in changing one of the default settings of HP and then choose Save as

    Choose your shortcut in the list, and then press the button apply

    Press OK and you get back to the center of HP

    Close the center of HP (X in the upper right corner)

    However, this is where I ran into problems... If the program you are printing from is currently open (Photoshop in my case) the default print settings will NOT change until you restart the program. Restart your program (Web browser, Photoshop, paint etc) and now your default print settings should be updated to use your custom default shortcut.

    I hope this will help some of you who have had problems.

  • 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.

  • Having printing problems

    Hello

    I have a HP Officejet pro 8500 connected a wireless... As far as I know, everything has been implemented and worked very well. But these days I got trouble

    I click on print, select 1 copy or never play of what I print... Click OK

    It says print in preparation... This box will appear

    I click on save and it does nothing happens... I click on and then a message shows and says an error as occurred.

    Hi jdude,.

    On the screen that you have provided, it seems that the author of the XPS document has been selected as your printer when you sent the job.

    What you want to do is, when you set up your print job, make sure the "printer" shows the HP Officejet 8500 a and not of Microsoft XPS Document Writer.

    Also, go to your printers folder and right-click on the Officejet 8500 a and choose set the printer as the default printer. The author of the XPS document can now be set by default, and that could be the problem. If the 8500 is not in the Printers folder, then you will need to add it again (or reinstall it, if you do not have an HP folder in your Start menu for the product).

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Thank you!

  • 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!

    Mario
