I have a Canon TS5150 that I wish to use on my Standard windoze 10 account, I use a Local Account (non-admin) for security and it only allows for installation on the Admin account (even when run as admin) - so I done that, however when I log back into my Local account there is no printer installed?

can anyone help with this?

its as if you can only use the printer in an Admin account that its installed in?

thanks in advance

sorted it - leaving instructions for others

CONTROL PANEL - HARDWARE & SOUND - DEVICES AND PRINTERS - right click on printer SET AS DEFAULT

if Microsoft kept all settings in one place i may have spotted it sooner!!
