Printer Settings changed after new profile on computer

I think I've already solved my problem, but I was hoping someone could give
me a bit more insight. From what I understand, an Access report was printing
to a printer with 3 Trays, and this report had always printed to Tray 2. The
computer the report was run from was setup with a new user profile,
whereafter the report began printing to Tray 3 (which has paper stock not
used for reports). I was able to correct it by going into the Report Design
and Page setup screen and specifying Tray 2.

My assumption is that when the report was first run under the new profile,
it took the settings from the default printer - which was incorrectly setup
at the time to use the Default Tray. Later on, the default printer was
changed to use Tray 2, but the Access reports did not follow suit.

Are these printer settings stored within the report itself, or somewhere
within the user profile? And, do you think the problem relates back to an
issue I see mentioned several times here - Perform name AutoCorrect?

As mentioned, the problem seems to be solved, but I feel I'm lacking a bit
in understanding. Any advice would be appreciated.
