Any idea why not?


To do a test print, he'd presumably be looking under
Settings/devices/printers at the officejet?


More like Devices and Printers, Printer Properties for his printer,
Print Test Page.

However if a different printer was set as the default, he might not
realise where the pdf prints were going to ...


No, I was doing the printing and I checked each time which printer it
was going to.

He only has one real printer. There are those 3 thingst come with
windows, Microsoft Print to PDF, Microsoft XPS Document WRiter, and Fax,
but I printed 4 times using only the actual printer.
