How do I stop Quickbooks from changing my default printer?

Question

Every time I print a check from Quickbooks it changes my default printer to it's PDF printer. I have to go into my printer settings and reset them every time I exit Quickbooks. I have searched their forums, and asked my question there and recieved no repsonse. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Is your printer set to the default printer in Windows? If it's not, in the Control Panel, that's your first problem.



Then, open QuickBooks and go to File > Print. On the next screen that appears, it likely shows QB's PDF printer in the top-most box, labelled Printer:.



Just click on the little triangle, and select your printer from the drop-down list, and print something.



Now QB should remember it every time. If not, re-install your Printer's drivers, and set it as the Default.

Answer 2

There is a feature in Quickbooks 2015 which allows to select the default printer per type of form which Quickbooks prints.



Go to QB File > Printer setup, then choose the form name in the drop-down box at the top.



Anyway, this resolved my problem.
