Printing Problem

[BrianMount]

We have a version of Publisher 97 and printing to a Canon Bubble Jet BJC-250.

PC was recently upgraded to Windows Millenium edition.

All other programs (Word, Access, Excel, etc.) print fine. When using Publisher, however, all we obtain is one line of garbled text that trails off into inky blackness.

Have used the Publisher and Windows troubleshooter to try and resolve the problem with no success. I've reinstalled the program and the same problem persists. Doesn't seem to be the printer driver (have reinstalled new ones) but how do I ensure that we're using a "Windows 95 printer driver" as called for in the instructions?

Brian,

I may not be much help on this, but I'm in the process of dumping my Windows ME. I have some programs that run fine on my Windows 98 PC, but not on the Me PC. Jon Holmen

I'd like to reserect this tread as I'm having exactly the same problem as Brian, although I have Windows 98. I get the same garbled line when I print and all my other programs print fine. Incidentally, I also have a BJC-250. Could this be the problem? Any advice would be really appreciated!

Have the same problem with Publisher and our Xerox 4cp. Can literally print to any thing else on our complex except this one printer!

Same problem here.... had Pub 98 with no problems and then upgraded to Pub 2000 no problems, upgraded to ME and now publisher is screwed up and I get an "OBJECT" error message and nothing will print in publisher. Further saved file to floppy took to another computer with Win98SE and Pub 2000 and it will not print my file either?? can anyone help us all with similar probs?? Keith Buchanan
