No default printer

When I go to print tax returns to the ProSeries basic version on my 64-bit of Windows Vista of stand-alone computer, I get a response saying "No default printer Found."  I went to download the fix from MicroSoft, but it will not download successfully.  Any suggestions?

Hello
 
1. are you able to print on other applications?
2. have you installed updates or programs before the problem started?
 
To resolve this issue, manually set the default printer. To do this, follow these steps:
1. click on start, type control printers in the start search box, and then click Control printers in the list programs.
2 right-click the printer that you want to use and then click on set as default printer. A check mark on the printer icon indicates that the printer is now the default printer.

I hope this helps.
 
Kind regards

  • 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

    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!

  • 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.
