And? You haven't give any clues to your problem. Error messages? What exactly is the problem?

Here's how to do it on XP. Win2000 is probably similar.

Go to Control Panel. Select Printers. Then View Installed Printers. Should show the available printers, with a check mark next to the default one. Right click on the printer you want to make default and select "Set as Default Printer" from the drop down menu.
