Setting Draft Quality in Print Options as default "Gordon" <gordonbparker[ at ]yahoo.com.invalid> 11/7/2008 2:29:55 PM Word 2007. I need to set Draft Quality as the Print setting in all new documents. How do I do this? (I set it in Office Button-Word Options-Advanced-Print but it doesn't stick.....)

Re: Setting Draft Quality in Print Options as default "Terry Farrell" <terryfarrell[ at ]msn.com> 11/7/2008 3:45:30 PM You need to go to Control Panel, Printers applet, then right-click on the printer icon, select Properties and change the default Printing Preference to Draft. It is a Printer driver default rather than a Word default. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Gordon" <gordonbparker[ at ]yahoo.com.invalid> wrote in message news:%23rn9NVOQJHA.4084[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...

Re: Setting Draft Quality in Print Options as default "Terry Farrell" <terryfarrell[ at ]msn.com> 11/7/2008 5:56:10 PM Sorry, I missed that bit (didn't read you message properly) and I thought you were changing it when you went to File, Print. I've not seen this reported before and I don't know the answer but will try to research it for you.
