User Prompted for Filename When Emailing Under Windows 10

Symptom: When emailing a document direct from a CDA program the user is prompted with a dialog box titled "Save Print Output As" when the user's operating system is Windows 10.

If your operating system is Windows 10, you may encounter a dialog box requesting you to save a copy when trying to send an email directly from a CDA program. This is due to the user not having selected a default printer, resulting in Windows 10 making an automatic decision to use Microsoft XPS Document Writer or another similar "virtual" printer.

 
If this occurs:
  • Close the CDA program
  • If you are using the Tile interface:
    • Click on the Settings (Gear symbol)
    • Click on Devices
    • Click on Printers and Scanners
  • Otherwise if you are using the Desktop interface:
    • Click on the Windows button
    • Search for Printers and Scanners
  • Untick the box that says “Let Windows manage my Default Printer"
  • Find your printer in the list of Printers above this option
  • Click on your printer
  • Click Manage
  • Click Set As Default
  • Close this window
  • Run the CDA program again and test.

If the problem still exists please contact CDA Software support
