Windows 10: Printing sent to non-default printer

Hi,
I'm running a win10 Pro system. When I try to print a file, the default printer is shown. Though, the document isn't sent to my default print (Brother MFC-430W Printer). Instead it shows up as a piece waiting in the queue of Foxit Editor PDF Printer (which shows in my Device and Printers list, or in MS PDFCreator, which doesn't show on this list.
How do I bring my default printer back to the fore?

Addendum: This problem shows while I try to print an Office document or when I print from my browser. Strangely, when I type to my Bullzip PDF printer, I manage to print the file from my Adobe Acrobat DC program.

:)

 

I am unable to print emails since installing Windows 10.

When asked to print, a window opens and I get the message that no file has been sent to the printer. It also shows the default printer as One Note, despite that fact that I set my HP printer as the default printer in settings. I can print word files
that are saved to computer or One Drive. Help!

 

"Let Windows manage my default printer" won't stay disabled

The issue with changing default printers is caused by sharing printers on network. It's a bug that Microsoft fails to acknowledge and address. It's very simple actually.

You cannot share a printer, if you have multiple printers connected to your computer and you want one specific printer on your computer to stay as default.

If you share a printer on your computer and then someone prints to that printer from another computer,

then the default printer will be changed to that printer. (That's it.)

Turn off print sharing and I guarantee if you have checked off (do not manage my printers for win 10). You will never see your default printer change again from what you have set.

There is no simple way to deal with this. Essentially anytime you want to print from your computer that shares any of it's printers, you will have to change the printer selected, right click and make default prior to print or you may end up printing to the
shared printer if a print job was sent last from another computer to yours.

Microsoft needs to fix this problem it is really annoying!

 

So if I understand you, when you print to the brothers device it is misdirected. If you print to Bullzip, Bullzip opens and creates a PDF, which is then opened in Adobe. (That is how by Bullzip runs)

Personally I would uninstalled the brothers device and all software associated with it. I would then go through the installation process.

Not sure on brothers but some printers want the drivers installed and then ask for printer to be connected. Others allow you to connect printer and then install drivers. Looks like this is a networked device. Check you quick setup guide for correct order. Go to Brothers and get the most recent software and drivers for your device.

 

Thanks a lot.
I've reinstalled the Brother drivers, and the problem disappeared.
