Where do I go to set default printer?

Every time I try to print from my email, my old printer shows as default printer. I did change it in my Computer, Devices and Printers, but the old one still pops up first.

I have three printers I use from this computer. When I print an email Thunderbird always prints on the wrong one, unless I manually select from the drop down list. I don't have this problem on Firefox or any other program. How do I change the default printer on Thunderbird?
