If Iput in my custom layout and ask to print cards 1 through 8no problem at all. Any ideas. I am printing to an HP 4 ]

Answer: This is more than likely a problem with your Printer driver. |

First thing I would recommend is visiting the website of your printermanufacturer, such as Canon (many issues) or Epson for example, andvisit the downloads/drivers section. Search for the printer driver thatrepresents the make and model that you are using and download that driver.I would make sure you select "Save" when prompted for download, not "Run".

Then, go to Start>Settings>Printers and right click on your currentprinter and choose delete from the menu that appears. If prompted toremove all files, choose yes. Then restart your computer.

Once your computer restarts, go to the folder where your new printerdriver was downloaded and double click the file to extract the printerdriver. This should prompt you through the setup routine for the newdriver.

If the file that you downloaded is not an executable, but only a filethat is *.inf, then you will need to follow these steps:

1. Go to Start>Settings>Printers2. Choose "Add Printer"3. Choose Next4. Select "Local Printer" then click Next5. At the next dialog box choose "Have Disk"6. Browse to the location of your newly downloaded *.inf file7. Follow the remaining prompts (you may have to insert your Windows CD)8. I would recommend restarting your computer at this point.

Now try a new print from Publisher.

This should fix your troubles. If not, either contact your printermanufacturer directly and inform them of the problem you have experienced.They might request that you try an older printer driver. If you are usingan HP, this is a very common scenario.

I hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please post back.You can also visit my site at http://www.mvps.org/publisher for great FAQ's,Templates and more!
