Dell Photo Printer 720

My Dell 720 printer is connected to my new Dell 3000 pc. When I go to ControlPanel\Printers and try to print a test page the printer works correctly. But when I try to print a Word document:
  • I first get the usual Word print screen, on which I click OK
  • But then when I click on the print screen the second time to send the document to the printer, the printer never receives the document andinstead a Save As Word screen comes up.

 

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.   ...wdc

This is a guess. Open Control Panel, Printers. Make sure the Dell 720 have a little check mark, indicating it's the default printer. If not, right-click it, and select Set as default printer.
