Default settings for my printer in Excel change when Import workbo
 

I am using Office 2003 and when I get an Excel workbook with multiple pages
E-mailed to me that I need to print out, my default printer settings get over
rode by the imported workbook and I have to change the properties on each and
every page within the workbook to my desired print mode. I know that I could
have the people that e-mail me change their settings but that would be a
real task. Is there anything I can do to make my default settings override
the override? Thanks much to anyone with the answer.

Page setups for printing are saved with the workbook.

Excel does not have a global default setting that covers all workbooks so
you get what the originator set up and saved.

The "real task" is your only option.
