Maybe
missing something, but I've found the printer choices stored in a 3.0 report will overrule the Windows Default. I recently did a report using my LaserJet 4+ and when installed it kept trying to print to a non-existant tray on the client's LJ 5+. We re-set the Windows default, saved, re-booted, etc. etc. (WIN95) and finally opened the report, looked at the default choice, which was the LJ5 printer, saved it and it worked.
On the surface, it didn't look like we changed anything, but....
