My printer reverts to Default; I wish to remove the old Default setting (which insists on double-sided printing grrr!) and replace it with a NEW Default setting (NOT "Default-1"). Is that possible or do I have to live with getting annoyed at my printer EVERY TIME I press "Print"???

Hi,
Follow these steps to disable two sided printing:
Open the file you would like to print. From the File menu select Print. The Print window appears.
NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Click the Show Details button to see all available settings.
Click the settings drop down, it will usually appear as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
Select Layout from the drop-down menu.
Set the Two-Sided option as Off.
You may save the settings as a preset by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset...
By doing so and completing the print job these settings will remain default till another preset will be used in the future.
Regards,
Shlomi
