I have XP and 2 printers with the laserjet set as default but can
change when I want to an all-in-one office jet to use if I wish.
Suddenly, whenever I re-start the computer my default printer changes
to the officejet all-in-one fax. How do I prevent this from happening?
Thanks

Open: Control Panel

Open: Printers & Fax

Right click on the driver icon that you want to become the
default printer. Left click on default printer.

Please note that some word processor programs will keep the
printer previously selected as a change in printers can easily
change the page layout. So, be careful when opening an old
document.

Add web browsers to that category as well.
