With Windows 10, windows tries to auto-manage your default printer. This tends to cause more confusion (since your default printer always changes to the last printer you printed to.) To get back to the old method, do this:

  1. Right Click the Start Button
  2. Choose "Control Panel"
  3. Click the "Devices and printers" icon or link
  4. Right click the the printer that you want as your default printer
  5. Choose "Set as Default"
  6. Windows may give you a warning if so click "yes" or "Ok"
  7. Any programs you have open will need to be closed and reopened for it to take effect in that program
