Correct printer default settings

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
Can someone help me !!!!
This is driving me nuts.
For some reason the Default settings, when I print anything on my home printer have changed.
- Paper size - other
- orientation - landscape
Therefore everytime I print I get 1/2 the print coming over the right hand side of the page.
I can correct, but need to do this every time I print.
Can someone please tell me how I can change the default print settings for my printer, so I don't have to change them ever single time I print.
Many thanks
have a great day
Regards
Mark

Hello diedoggie,
You can change the default printer settings in CUPS.
Just go to: http://localhost:631/admin > Manage printers > Select your printer > Change "Administration" to "Set Default Options". When you're done, you click "Set Default Options".

  • Setup printer defaults settings in BI reports

    Hi,
    Our client has given us some new requirements to be able to setup printer defaults settings in BI reports so that when the user opens up the report the printing format is set for them. All the user has to do is refresh the BI report and then it will print correctly for them, with Headers and Footers.
    Now, I know we can not do this with the Query Designer, but we may be able to do it with workbooks, but what I don’t know is if there are other options we can take to do this.  Such as the Report Designer? I have never used the Report Designer so I don’t know if we can build reports using the Report Designer and that the user can access and run this report from somewhere such as the portal.
    Can any one please help in this regard.

  • BUG: Printer default settings not being used when selected in Print Dialog Prompt

    We have 2 styles of printers on our computers: and Epson Receipt Printer (paper size Roll Papper 80mmx257m) and a Dell printer (paper size 8.5x11)
    Our issue is if use us the non-defaulted printer to print something in Internet Explorer, it overrides the default printer setting with its default settings of that non-default printer.  When we try to use the default printer again, the settings will
    not switch back to the appropriate settings of that default printer.  
    Example: (Epson selected as Default Printer in Windows 7 Professional)
    I open IE and select print on a page.  I select the Dell printer and hit apply to change the print settings to the default settings of that Dell.  Everything prints fine.  I then try that same page, but this time I select the Default Printer
    (Epson) and hit "apply" in the Printer Dialog Prompt and print.  The print out is of the paper size letter and not the default settings for the Epson which is Roll Paper.  I look at the settings in the preferences from IE's Print Dialog
    Prompt and it shows it will use the Paper Size: LT 8.5x11 in.  
    If I close and re-open IE and print that same page to the Epson without selecting the Dell I see that the settings are back to the defaults for the Epson and things print as they should.
    Why doesn't IE use the default settings after selecting any printer and hitting apply in the print dialog prompt past the first change of printer selection?

  • How can I change printer default settings?

    Officejet J5700 series: 
    How can I set the default settings so I dont have to change the printer Properties each time I print? 

    just thought of one thing that may have solved the problem. I had not changed color management from automatic to manual. I did that and it seems to now be working the way I want it. More later if that doesn't hold across reboot, log out, etc.

  • Change printer default settings

    I have and HP Officejet Pro 8600.  The print default setting is to print colour.  How do I set the default setting to Black Ink  
    Regards

    Go to Devices and Printers, right click the printer, click Printing Preferences then go to Advance tab, usually there is an option there that you have to set to print only in grayscale. Hit Apply then ok, then close the window.

  • Mac print default settings by document?!

    i am on a mac running Mountain Lion. I have an HP 8600 and an Epson Wide Format. I have documents that are 11 x 17 and 12 x 18. these all seem to default to print on my 8600 at 8 x 11.
    this means that every time i try to print these documents i have to hit PAGE SETUP, then I have to pulldown to the EPSON, then i have to pull down to 11 x 17 PAPER, then i have to hit OK, then i have to pull down to ESPON AGAIN (because the default printer that i use is the 8600 for 8 x 11 prints).
    half the time i make some kind of mistake and the document comes out on the 8600 on 8 x 11 at the /correct/ size (even though it is missing half the document) /or/ it comes out on the Espon on 11 x 17 paper as if it was being scaled to fit for 8 x 11.
    is there some way to figure out how to print out of Acrobat X in some more reliable way? is there some technical document that explains this? the software suite was like 1200 US or something i would think that i would not continue to have these kinds of problems.
    is there some step by step guide for setting up presets? another solution?
    it took me about a year and a half to finally figure out how to simply print to 12 x 18 paper (don't ask) and i am still manually swapping out paper trays for slot 1 so that i can print on 11 x 17 or 12 x 18 respectively simply because trying to find another variable in these dialogs is like adding a multiplicity factor which makes the possible combinations like trying to calculate the parabolic trajectory for landing on the moon from earth.
    should i just give up and print out of Mac Preview?
    anyone able to explain why this is so complicated?
    THANKS

    I work at a PC, AA9, but is there an option in your print dialog
    Choose Paper Source by PDF Page Size?
    assumes the documents are 11 x 17, 12 x 18
    Optionally, you might create a 2nd (and 3rd) instance of your Epson printer and change it's default paper size to 11 x 17 (12 x 18) and name the printer Epson Tabloid (Epson Tabloid Extra). Choose the appropriate printer per the document. 

  • Set print default settings to grayscale?

    Is there a way to set the default print settings to grayscale like you can on a Windows computer?
    I have an HP Photosmart B210E, but the only way to print grayscale all the time is to be sure to set it on File/Print's dialog or replace my printer with a Grayscale only one.

    Mine is with OS X 10.7.2. Hope this helps.
    1. Once you click print from whatever applications of your Mac. It should be like this
    Then click drop-down list. Go to "Quality & Media", as in above picture.
    2. In "Quality & Media" menu, mark on "Grayscale printing" as shown in below picture.
    3. Go to "Presets" 's drop-down list. Select "Save Current Settings as Preset..."
         as shown below.
    4. Choose your Preset Name, as well as its availability. (see following picture). Then click OK.
    >>>> Now you're done.
    Next time you print, just select from Presets' drop-down list as you saved it!

  • Label Printer Default Settings Changing

    I have several Crystal reports designed in version 10 that are printed to a particular Dymo labelwriter.  The same labelwriter model is installed on several PCs and the report is saved calling out that specific printer and label size.  The report always prints to the proper printer (regardless of the PC's default printer) but they do not print to the labelwriter default label size.  My PC is the only exception; all others that print labels require users to select the appropriate label size.  Each labelwriter printer driver is defaulted to the same label size, but the crystal report viewer doesn't seem to pick that up.  What am I missing??

    Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly

    Hi,
    Ofcourse, its different issue...Can you explain me why you have used the below code
    *&--GET THE EXISTING DEFAULT PARAMETERS
    CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
    EXPORTING
    no_dialog = 'X'
    IMPORTING
    out_parameters = l_t_params.
    I mean you are importing the existing default parameters but you are not modifying the parameters in l_t_params. I hope you are not required above code.

  • Change printer default settigns for all sheets

    We are running Office 2007/2010/2013. Normally, our client send us an excel file with 20 or 30 jobs (sheets).
    Our Canon printer default settings is 2 sided on 1 page. When we change the default settings from 2 sided to 1 sided, we need to do it one sheet at one time. In other words, we need to do it 20 or 30 times for that excel file. We wonder
    how to change the settings from 2 sided to 1 sided that will change whole book settings.

  • Windows 7 Thinkvanta​ge Access Connection​s 5.41 does not stick to printer default

    hi
    i have installed windows 7 on 3 lenovo laptops (x60s, x61, t500) and installed AC 5.41 but and have configured them with 5 profiles each with their own default printer preferences but for some reason when i toggle from 1 profile to another the default printer setting does not change accordingly
    this is really annoying as i have managed to print documents to the wrong printer a couple of times and it seems to be accross the board on all my windows 7 installations
    is this happening to anyone else?
    cheers

    no i haven't
    i have now deployed 5 thinkpads (x200 with lenovo windows 7 installation disk) and 4 X61 and T500's with my own windows build and downloaded all the thinkvantage software using system update (had to manually upgrade to 5.42 as system update did not pick up on the updates)
    the printer default sometimes swaps over but often it just defaults to the original ms windows xps writer and not the the one i had specified.
    very frustrating, luckily a lot of my users do not switch locations very often and only print from 1 location but i have some laptop roll outs planned for users who do use this printer default settings a lot and i will get some stick for this.

  • When I print, resolution changes, can I reset Acrobat to default settings?

    I can't see any issue with any of my settings though shortly after reinstalling CS a month ago, Acrobat started printing to a much lower resolution than the PSD (or any application) is set to print to, though Photoshop may be the only one where I am actively looking into resolution issues because...
    Every resulting PDF I get is about 1x1", when I'm starting with a letter size doc (or any other size, they all shrink down that dramatically in Acrobat iwth the resulting PDF).
    Checking all resolution settings in Advanced Print Settings dialogs all -look- like they're fine. Is there a way to reset the whole shebang to installation default settings to help correct this traumatic happening which always happens just as I need to send a PDF off to someone of course.
    Thanks for your help in advance, I really appreciate any tips or if the default thing is easy, thanks! 

    Hi, thanks. Do you mean Save As - Photoshop PDF, or... how are you referring to doing that? 
    (Thank you for this!  I had taken to making screenshots for pete's sake, though this change happened suddenly, so ... I have no idea why printing to PDF suddenly didn't work and it seems it should be "repairable".)

  • Does anyone know a way to modify "Default Settings" printer preset?

    I use enough different presets that I find that the "Last Used" preset for printing if often what not what I really want.
    (Background: I save a number of different profiles for different types of print jobs, so that I can select "Color Production" as a preset, for example, and get a number of printer settings configured as once, like Color Settings, Quality, Color, and duplexing.  These are set and selected using the "Presets" picker in the Print dialog box.  One can use the picker to save and view settings as well.)
    Am I correct in that there doesn't seem to be a way to change the "Default Settings" preset?  The "Show Presets" pick in Presets doesn't offer the ability to change the presets, and the "Default Settings" preset can't be deleted here, unlike the user set presets; it also isn't possible to save a preset as "Default Settings".
    Ideally, changing the default would let me check the box to always use the default (as default), but this way I would have my own defaults.  Just wondering whether I'm missing something obvious - I've tried the modifier keys trick clicking on things, and also the CUPS subsystem at localhost:631.
