I have been running a bowls club db for years without problem. I now find I am getting an error message whichever report I call. "Please wait for printer connection or cancel connection"
If I click on cancel - surprise - it cancels the request. If I leave it and wait then after some seconds the report is shown.
Is anyone else having this issue? Anyone know the answer please?

Try set the Windows default printer to Microsoft Print To PDF to see if you get the same delay.

Duane- thanks again.
OK, that removed the delay, but what is the permanent answer? delete all printers (3) and reinstall?

I wondered if it was some weird MS365 update that threw a wobbly, is this common?

Thanks again
