Where do I set the default paper size to A4,so that if I install a new printer, it sets it to A4 automatically?

Really depends on the printer.

Go to Start\Settings\Printers and faxes and select the properties (right click)of the printer. Somewhere in there it will say something like Printing Prferences or Printer defaults. Have a look in there :D

Thanks for the reply. I know where to find them on a per-printer basis, but I'm certain you can set the default values, so that if I install a new printer in a few weeks/months time, it is automatically set to my preferences, rather than what MS think I want it to be.
