My default printer keeps changing

This is pretty wierd. Yes, it's a network. We have 4 printers. When one workstation boots up, all "default printers" change to the one on this workstation, no matter what they're set to. This started happening a couple months ago, and I'm just not finding it. . .
Any idea where to start looking?
One of 7 windows boxes, two sparc boxes, and 2 solaris x86 systems.
