I am aware that printers are associated with the
computer, but had the following scenario today:

User had an Epson printer set as default.
User logged off workstation.
Administrator logged on to workstation to install new
hardware.
Admin logged off
User logged on
Checked printer settings - another network printer was
showing as default.

Admin made no changes to printers.

Any ideas?
