Hi @Greenie6,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

The image shows the HP print settings window for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8120 series, with the Preset currently set to Factory Defaults. To make your preferred settings the default for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8125e, configure them through Windows printer preferences.

Set the default printing properties

1. Open Settings in Windows.
2. Select Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners.
3. Select the HP OfficeJet Pro 8120 series printer.
4. Select Printing preferences.
5. Configure the required options under the Basic, Document, and Advanced tabs, such as: 
   • Color Mode
   • Two-sided Printing
   • Pages per Sheet
   • Print Quality
   • Orientation
   • Paper Size
   • Paper Source
6. Select Apply, and then select OK.

These settings should become the default for new print jobs. Please note that some applications may use their own print settings and can override the Windows defaults.

Save the settings as a preset
From the window shown in the image:

1. Select the required printing properties.
2. Select the Save preset icon next to the Preset menu.
3. Enter a name for the preset.
4. Save the preset and select it from the Preset drop-down menu when printing.

Using Printing preferences sets the Windows defaults, while saving a Preset allows the same group of settings to be selected quickly when needed.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have an amazing day!
