My first workflow - Change default printers

[wxn0000]

I often need to change the default printer setting when I'm at work or at home. Since I didn't find any available workflows, I decided to build my own. So here it is, my first Alfred workflow. Hope it will be useful for someone else.

I only replaced the file in dropbox, so hopefully the link still works. Let me know if you have any problems!

Great!

For me it would be helpful if the workflow would show the (editable) name and not the device name.

Thanks for your input!

 

But I'm not sure I follow your meaning... Could you elaborate a little bit more?

Ok, you see on this picture two names for the printer. In the first line Name: HP (TC) Officejet, in the third line Devicename: HP_Officejet_4500_G510a_f. It helps if I could see the first name in your workflow and not the third name. Why? See the second picture below.

 

 

 

I don*t know the printer "to"?

 

Thanks!

Sadly the link to download this workflow no longer works. Anyone know how to do this?
