How to set the default printer settings for all remote desktop users in Windows 7?
After trial and error i adapted a solution for Windows server 2008 R2 that worked.
The solution is go to
Control panel / System and security / Admin Tools (translating from Italian so i hope it is good)
Then on the right navigate in the tree to
Print management/ Print servers/YOUR_PC/Printers
and in the control panel choose the printer right click on it choose "Default print settings" and set the defaults.

I have a Windows 7 machine to which many LAN users access, to use some applications in Remote Desktop. That machine has a printer too. People use this PC also to print.
The problem is that when a person prints, it prints in colors. I'd like to set black and white as the default setting for all users.
How can I achieve this?
