MacOS – How to _unset_ the default printer

macosprinting

I know I'm going to hit myself when someone tells me the answer, but I set the Default Printer on my Mac, and wish I hadn't. Previously, it would default to the last printer used, which was great. Now I can't find a way to unset the default printer to get back to the last printer used state.

FWIW, I'm on a Mac OS X 10.9.5 – Mavericks.

Command line solutions welcome too…

Go to System PreferencesPrinters & Scanners and set Default printer to Last printer used.
