Hi All,

Every time I select 'LOCL' and send a print.. irrespective of what printer I select the printout is always sent to the windows DEFAULT printer. Can someone plz help me understand the situation?

Thanks in Advance..

Hi Muktar,

When you give LOCL it will check for the default local printer which had setup. so it will goes to the default printer only.

Thanks for the response.... I agree with your answer but when I select a different printer, still the printout goes to the default printer... which I dont want.. I want to get printout from the selected printer....

Though you select, it will goes to the default priniter.

Set new printer as default printer and try.

Hi ingeneral LOCL is configured as Default Printer in most of the systems. That means LOCL is not itself a printer, but this is what the printer local to the system. that's why print out is always going to defualt printer...

Check with any other printer. Observe the description properly. In description Default pronter will be specifed clearly...
