• Cannot set a default printer

  This comes in our helpdesk today, and I have absolutely no idea on how to solve this problem.

  -The client has just had new printer Lexmark Pro 915 installed.  Can correctly print a test page for the properties of the printer.
  -Cannot print from Excel.  It is said that no printer is found.
  -L' printer is not marked as default.  When I try to set the default printer, nothing happens.
  -No printer cannot be set as default.  When you try to do, nothing happens.
  -L' printer is connected and coming as "ready".  Still, test page prints fine.
  -Tried to uninstall the old unused printers from Add/Remove programs.  Restarted the computer.  No effect.
  -Tried to uninstall, reboot, and reinstall the printer Lexmark Pro 915.  Behaves in the same way (tried to settle before removing administrator rights, so by default).
  -Tried to completely close down the computer, unplug and remove the battery, but once it has restarted, he always had the same problem.  No printer can be set as default.
  -L' printer is still recognized by the computer, but it is not the default.  In some programs (Notepad, IE), it can always print, although he must select manually.  In Word and Excel, the old printer which has since been completely uninstalled still appears as the default.  In Word, the printer by default only presents itself as a blank line, but you can select the printer in a menu drop-down.  In Excel, it leaves no him print at all, saying that no printer is found.  It does allow him to select a printer.  It is a big problem since Excel is the program that it needs to be able to print from most.

• 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 set the default printer.

  I'm having a problem with one of the users on my setup of server companies. She is unable to set a default printer and cannot print from Excel 2010 to all. However, while on the terminal even when I login as administrator, everything works perfectly. I tried to set a default value manually through the registry, I tried all of the scripts that I can find, I tried to uninstall and reinstall the printers. I don't know where to go from here. Any advice?

  It's a 2003 server.
  The terminal is running XP.
  Printers are all non-local network.
  However, the result is the same for a local printer.

  Hi Cameron LUM,

  Your question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public. Please post your question in the TechNet Windows server forum.

• 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.
