print preview causes Word 2007 to crash - Vista
Hi,
the subject pretty much says it all. When I choose 'print preview' the program locks up. I ran the repair but it didn't help. Any ideas would be appreciated. thanks, Mike |

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the printer?

No, but it's a good question!
The computer in question is a laptop,and is presently only connected to a printer via a network. I wanted to show something, to somebody that I'm doing a small job for tonight, so the laptop won't be connected to a printer at all. What should I do?

Make sure that the printer *driver*is installed locally even though the
printer is on a network. Word must see a printer driver in order to format the page. See the "Printer Problems" section of http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...artingWord.htm -- Suzanne S.

I installed the drivers locally, and still got 'not responding'.
I found this site via the link that you gave me.... http://www.chicagotech.net/netforums...hp?p=3875#3875 And deleted the local icon and installed the Epson printer via the 'network'. Still got the dreaded 'not responding'. I now have Microsoft XPS Document Writer as the default printer and that works, as does my local FoxIt printer, if I make it the default. So I can do what I need to do this evening, thanks to you. One would have hoped that Word 2007 would give some kind of message such as, 'no printer found' instead of 'not responding' :-( thanks Suzanne, Michael "Suzanne S.
