A common inquiry we receive from our clients is how to change the default printer in Dynamics Great Plains (GP). In order to change the default printer, you simply need to go to Dynamics GP, click on the main GP drop-down menu and select Print Setup.

Within the Print Setup window, you may go ahead and select a different printer from the drop-down options and then click Ok.

After clicking Ok, the next time you print any report, it will default to the printer selected in that Print Setup Window.

If the printer selected is Adobe PDF and you encounter the below error. The error occurs because some characters in the original file are unreadable when converted.

Follow these steps to configure the system appropriately.

1. Open a PDF in Acrobat
2. Navigate to File > Print
3. Select Adobe PDF from the list of Printers and click Properties                                                                       
4. Uncheck the option called “Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts”                                                                                 
5. Reprint the errored file.
