Google Chrome: Set Default Printer (same as OS Default)

[MYK-IT]

We have just changed / updated our Printer Server and Printers and therefore the print shares have changed (names) etc.

 

Our Printer GPO has been updated, and all printers (including default) are applying 100%. However, when users want to print via Chrome Browser, the default selected printer is not the same, still defaults to the previous, now-defunct printer. Yes, you can browse and select the correct one, but this is catching many users out.

 

It appears that Chrome remembers the last, used printer - not the OS's current printer (default) settings.

Besides implementing 'system print dialog' or SHIFT+CTRL+P, or clearing out the cached profiles etc, anything else available to reset / match to the OS print settings? (e.g. registry entry, GPO, clear appdata folder/file)

 

Thanks,

Chrome's "Default printer selection rules" GPO is the one you need to configure.

Thanks @Arthur still wish it was a simple option to match OS's printer settings....
