Default printer
I am having problem with Toshiba SatellitePro notebook and WindowsNT Workstation 4.0 on it. Every time user reboots the notebook its sets up network HP 2500 color printer as his default printer no meter what printer has been setup as default one before the reboot (he wants that LaserJet 4V on LPT1 be his default printer). I tried setup 4V as the default printer by editing registry and it did not work. All other users who have HP 2500 color printer installed on their PC do not have this problem.

Unisntall all printers except the laserjet and make it the default and reboot a few times and then reinstall the other printers that you may need and then reboot a few more times and see if it stuck.

Printer driver that came with OS (NT) was causing this problem. I installed one from HP site and that fixed problem.
