<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Several users report their computers updated to Windows 10 overnight, while others simply updated to the new OS themselves, or bought replacement machines with Win10 already loaded. Whatever the situation, there is a default setting that affects printers.<br />
<br />
==Symptom==<br />
The user will report their invoices, POs, quotes, etc. are printing in a narrow strip on one side of the page. Usually they will also report that they printed tags just prior to printing other reports.<br />
<br />
==Cause==<br />
'''Let Windows manage my default printer''' is set to '''On'''<br />
<br />
==Fix==<br />
Set '''Let Windows manage my default printer''' to '''Off'''<br />
<br />
Go down to the '''Start Button''' and start typing ''printer''. As the image shows, you have more than one option. Choose the one with the gear icon that reads, '''Printers & scanners'''.<br />
<br />
*On the left side of the screen, select '''Printers & scanners''' <br />
*Click the toggle switch under '''Let Windows manage my default printer''' to '''Off'''<br />
*Make sure the right printer is set as the default</div>Hheffelbower
