My subform won't print

My database has two related tables: one with personnel information, and another with details about contracts. Each staff person may have one or several contracts. The tables are linked by the employee number, which is generated automatically.

I have created a form containing personnel information with a subform showing the contracts for that staff person. I modified the subform in design view to make the labels and controls fit width-wise on the page.

I want to be able to print the form for one staff person, along with all of the sub-form records that correspond. When I print the form, the place where the subform should be is just a blank rectangle. The same thing happens if I save the form as a report and then print it.

Any ideas?
 
Check the "Display When" property of the sub-form, if it is "Screen Only", change it to "Always".
