At work I connect to a network printer. When I go home of an evening and
come back to work, the default printer is gone. Every time I start my
computer I have to go into control panel to reset the default for the office
printer.

Please help.

What pinter is set to default when you get back to work? Do you shut
you computer off at home or just let it sleep?

I don't that much about this stuff, but maybe there is a network
discovery type setting that could be turned off, possibly under advanced
sharing in the Network and sharing center.
