Question Changing one of the print defaults

When I hit the print button the print options box comes up and there is a choice of what you want to print. The default is ALL pages but I can manually change this to THIS PAGE ONLY.

How do I change the default so I just get one page printed?

I'm fep up with kids etc looking up a website, wanting to print off the first page, but ending up using my best paper with 30 pages rolling off!!

Using XP.

Thanks, David

I don't think you can do that.

You can change almost all the options of the printer by opening up the control panel, select your printer and choosing printing preferences, but what pages to print isn't there...
