Acrobat Pro Print Dialog Keeps Defaulting to 2 Copies
My issue appears similar to the unaddressed Dec. 2025 report titled “the printing window always shows up with 2 copies preset to print.” I am adding my case because the issue is still occurring in Acrobat Pro: the print dialog permanently defaults to 2 copies even after changing it back to 1.
This appears to have started after I printed 2 copies once, and Acrobat now treats that as the permanent default. This is only happening in Acrobat; Word and other programs still default to 1 copy, so it does not appear to be a printer-driver default.
I have tried manually changing the number back to 1, closing and reopening Acrobat, restarting the computer, opening different PDFs, checking printer properties, and using “Reset All Settings” in the printer properties window, but Acrobat still returns to 2 copies every time I open the print dialog.
It would be very helpful if Acrobat either respected the system printer default or provided a clear way to reset the saved copy count back to 1.
