Win 10 keeps changing the default printer using Remote Desktop
I have 2 Win 10 computers and an XP computer in my home network. I have 2 printers connected to the XP computer. I mostly use the XP computer with Remote Desktop to control a Win 10 computer. The printers work fine in all situations except Remote Desktop with the XP computer connecting to the Win 10 computer.
Every time I print in this situation, I see that my default printer is my Canon 410, instead of my Canon 920. If I select Canon 920 as the default printer then it all works fine until the next day when I reboot all the computers.
I wonder if I should uninstall all printers and install the 920 first. The 410 was
bought first so it was installed first. I also tried changing the name of the 920 to "a Canon 920" in case it was an alphabetical order thing, but that didn't help.
I've tried a lot of things it seems, like trying different settings on the Win 10 "let Win 10 set the default printer". I've been running this setup for over a year and it seems like in the past it was working ok, so I assume some Win 10 update changed it.
Any suggestions?
