filePro has nothing to do with the system's default printer. What O/S are
you on. How do you manage your system printers? In SCO it would be
scoadmin -> printers. Pick the printer you want to be your default printer.
Also, is it possible something in your _ueser_ environment is overriding the
actual system printer. Look in your .profile, .login, etc., file.
