Yet another problem...

Our printer worked fine when we got it and even a while after i switched it to the opposite side of the desk
now it mirrors everything so its all backwards when it prints
im not sure if my dad messed with anything , but if thats the case how to i fix this problem and if that isnt the case how could it of changed to mirroring every time it prints?

Is it a standalone photo printer? Sounds like a photo printing button may have been pressed while moving it.

Go into control panel, select printer, and right click the printer you are using. Click on properties, then click the preferences link near the bottom. There should be an option for print layout, click that and look for something that says mirror. Chances are, that's been switched.

you may what to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the printer. may even want to check the manufacturers web site for the latest drivers.

although it really should not matter, some printers recomend not to change the USB port they were plugged into when the drivers were installed.

Ford six is more than likely correct ( its a setting for printing out stuff like tshirt transfers)

here's what mine looks like i clicked on "printer prefs" your printer might say something else.
