Hello Community,

I encounter this issue on windows11. When I print from InDesign, it does not use the same printer as the Windows printer settings. I need to change the printer preference every time if I want to print. It does not save the last setup I made.

My printer driver is up to date.
InDesign Version 20.0.1

Can you please help me how to fix this

Which one is a default Windows Printer?

The setting you are setting up - they are on the system level - outside of InDesign's scope.

If you want to preseve them - you need to create a new printer - duplicate one you've already installed - then set those preferences as default for this duplicated printer.
