Default Printer changing by itself?

Following on from my last post please see this GIF and explain how I can no longer print these report to a Printer in my office?

If you watch closely you will see the Default Printer gets changed (by Samba) when I try to print?

EDIT:

Ok that issue has been resolved by shutting down and rebooting - tested OK. So can you please confirm that SambaPOS will change the default printer on the fly OR if I have done something wrong?

I don’t think SambaPOS have some code that leads to change default windows printer. This probably something relates with windows side but I don’t know what as I never encountered something like that. I’ll keep an eye on it.

Great, thanks Emre - it not stopping any functionality LIVE on site, so good lets keep an eye on things.

Windows 10 does that by default.

To return to the behavior you are used to, turn this setting OFF …

Let Windows manage my default printer
