The same used to be true of Adobe Reader, however testing of the DC version has shown this behavior has been corrected. I have found that with MS Office applications ie Word and Excel that if a user accesses and changes their printer properties or even the selected printer then prints that document and does not close the document then the next document opened using that same application will retain whatever settings or printer that was selected previously if the application is not closed.

Р”РЋ- I would have to go to each workstation to install a second printer driverР”Сћ- after years choosing the same printer and go changing the settings to ColorР’В on the printer driver, isn't it utopia to think users will actually change their habits? You see I suspect some will continue opening the printing preferences and pick Color or Black and whiteР’В . Yea I thought about that too I found it promising until I realize that. This way they do not have to mess with the settings/properties of the printer and as it's 'dummy-proof', everyone is able to use it this way o) When they want to print in Color, they simply change the printer in the Print screen. When a user wants to print B&W, they don't do anything, besides pressing Print. Users now have 2 printers on their machines.

Then we added the same printer again, this time configured for color. What we did is add the printer (and made it standard), configured using B&W only.
