.PrintOut in Outlook VBA printing more than 1 copy

[MattJTyler]

I've written some VBA code to print out the email using
the .PrintOut VBA command, e.g.

objSentMailItem.PrintOut

A couple of the users are complaining that more than one
copy is printed even though I've stepped through the code
and there is only one .PrintOut command.

I can't recreate it on my machine.

I watched the print queue on one users's machine and only
1 document went through with 1 page, yet 2 copies
printed.

Anyone know why this is happening?

Using Win2000 and Office2000 SR1

Did you ever get this resolved? I am running into the very same thing. It appears that somewhere you might have to pass it the number of copies you want. It obviously doesn't default to 1.

Please post a reply solution if you have an answer.

Hi

No, I didn't. But I did narrow it down to certain users. It only appears to happen on users who are printing to a printer directly connected to their PC - this didn't happen with network printers. These printers are HP so it could be a driver issue. I can't remember if there was an option to specify a number of copies, if there was I'm sure I tried it.

Please let me know if you make any further progress on this
