Delayed default printer?

H

Howard Brazee

I have a Remote Desktop Vista machine that I log into from my XP
machine (The Vista machine is multi-user down in the computer room - I
don't have hardly any authority to do thing on it). In the Remote
Desktop's startup folder, I have PrintKey.

PrintKey is a utility that makes printing screens and windows easy.
But when I first use it, it doesn't think I have a default printer. I
exit out of it, restart it, and now it knows about my default printer.

I'm wondering if this may be a sequence thing - that it starts up
before my Vista session has set up my default printer.

I suppose I should take it out of my startup folder, and run it
manually.

Is my guess correct? Is there a work-around?
