Default Printers on Student Computers

Students are getting confused because Dunspool on JACKSON doesn't appear as the top (or default) print destination. 

In order for JACKSON to be the default printer, the full start-up protocol needs to finish, which on our slow computers might take a long time. Until all start-up scripts have run, the default will be the Microsoft XPS Doc Writer.  That print destination goes no where. 

The solution for patient students is to wait for the start-up script to finish before trying to print.  Or impatient students can continue to go in and manually change the print destination. (Hopefully a more permanent solution of faster computers is one the way.)
