  1. Default printer choice doesn't stick


    Good afternoon!How do I get the Microsoft Print to pdf option to stop changing my default printer? I have a consistent printing pattern that I use that for now, does not include 'Microsoft Print to pdf' and I continue to choose the default printer, but the next thing I know I have printed something remotely to my office and when someone goes to pick it up it isn't there because the default printer had changed back to 'Microsoft Print to pdf' and I didn't realize it. I move quickly through my printing tasks and when the default choice that I make changes itself to something else, I have to go

    my 3Dprinter doesn´t appear

    My 3D printer doesn´t appear on when I open 3D builder on the left popup to choose printer.

    Is it need to do any previous step?? I thought It was plug and play. the printer is an UP Plus2 from Tiertime so, it is one of the recommended partners manufaturers. any message of error just doesnçt possible to send the prin.

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.
