My "Printing Defaults" for my HP Colour LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw are set with General Everyday Printing to a Paper size of A4. However, some while ago I adjusted the paper size for one application to print a photograph to "Small Photo". Ever since, Word documents default printing goes to a paper size of A4 but Adobe and Corel documents default back to a paper size of "Small Photo". If I go to "Properties" and change the paper size from Small Photo back to A4, it will stay on A4 until I close the document but on reopening it the printer size has defaulted back to Small Photo. How do I get the default to stay on A4?

Many thanks - you sent me on the right track.
It was under the "Settings" menu. I selected "Printers & Scanners" - selected the printer and then "Manage" - "Printer Properties" - "Preferences". This finally brought me to the same "Printing Preferences" menu window that i thought that I had changed from the desktop icon for the printer but it was showing "Small Photo". I changed it to A4 and, hey presto, the printer default on my Adobe and Corel applications has finally returned to A4.
