This is a curiosity not a crisis but I thought maybe someone with deep Windows knowledge would know the answer. Imagine a home network. All Windows computers. Domainless. A computer named Basement has a laser printer, as does a computer named Kitchen. Sometimes a computer named Laptop prints to Basement, sometimes to Kitchen's printer. No matter how many times I set the default printer from Basement to Kitchen, at some later time, perhaps after a reboot, Laptop reverts to Basement as its default printer. I wouldn't think this has anything to do with the browse master negotiations, but Basement is the oldest computer on the network. Any theories? Thanks, /rich
