I have some computers that I set up a couple years ago by creating a user account, setting it up the way I wanted, and copying that user's directory over Default User's directory. Pretty simple stuff.
One of the things that I did was to add a printer and set it as the default. Straightforward, or so I thought.
Things have changed, and that printer has been removed and replaced with a different printer. I deleted the old printer's object and added the new one.
Now every time a new user logs in, their profile gets copied from Default User, and they get the old printer as their default. This re-adds the old printer object to the system. Now every user can see the old printer's object again.
I want to permanently delete Default User's default printer. How?
