Problem Printing

[piehobo28]

As you my have known, I have gotten a new computer. I was just about to print FS HD helmet, and it comes to the screen where it downloads all the pages. Usually it prints, but it didn't. I have Vista now so I do not know much about it. Thanks for the help!

Eeeeerrrr.......You mean Print preview? Try checking if your printer is plugged in and turned on. If not check the settings on properties. If that doesent work try clicking on the printers active task's, cancell them all then try printing again.

I just tried all of that and none of them worked. It still won't print. And no, I didn't mean print preview. It was something else.

Hmmm I have no Idea then sorry.

Is your printer installed? Is it turned on? Is it plugged in? Can you print other things not in the pepakura program.

I have two new computers (both vista) and get this problem all the time. Go into "Printers" in the "Control Panel" and click "Add a Printer" in the tool bar. Just go through the short installation process and be sure to give it a different name than before.

You're printer should now work, but if your computer is anything like mine, you'll have to do this every few days or so...

Use all CD/software to install a printer, windows itself can install them, but most of the time they print, but not as good as they should, once you have the driver on, you're printer should work IF you read and followed the directions properly.

What actually happened was that my printer isn't compatible with vista. I REALLY need to check that next time. Now I need a new printer.
