[QUOTE="Scotex89, post: 1616864, member: 335614"] Thank you for the suggestion, but that is what I did, exactly: "highlight the printer you wish to be default, then go to the bottom option "Default Printer" and make sure you home printer name is selected and shows up in that box:". I had the same problem before. I would inadvertently print personal stuff on my work printer and have to rush to work in the morning to grab it before anyone else picked it up. A friend added this new one, listed by its IP address. It appears always first when I print anything. I have to select my home printer, which is not wireless. But I have another wireless printer at home too, so that is not the reason. [/QUOTE]
