Photoshop CS3 Revert to defat printer.

[Mandoo]

Greetings all, this may be an easy question but, i regularly have to print of many single file prints from within photoshop. On CS2 i could just open them up and so long as i did not quit the program the printer settings would remain the same. On CS3 the printer reverts to the default printer (crappy Epson BW desktop machine) Is there any way of preventing this or can some one suggest a better way of going about it? (an i know i could do a batch setup, will get around to it one of these days.)

Change your default printer to the one you want to use.

...in system prefs

My appologies, i don't think i explained my problem very clearly. I posted it in a hurry while at work.

The set up i am using is CS3 Design Premium, running on a PC. The default printer is a black and white lazer to print out orders, this has to remain so as some of my collegues are as technicly minded as a slug.

The job in question is a series of photos that i get sent on a regular basis to print via a fiery rip into a xerox 2024.

In CS2 i could always open up some or all of the photos together, set my printer and printer prefs for the first image and so long as i didnt close photoshop they would remain the same. Since i have been upgraded to CS3 i find that now photoshop reverts to the default black and white printer with every image.

I know the easy way round this would be to batch print the images but as it is not always my self printing these images i need to find out how to prevent the printer defaulting to BW without changing the windows default printer.

(sorry if its a bit long winded....)
