can't print

Post by George Sinclair »

I have an Hp 6300 all in one printer but I can't get open office word to print to it. All my other programs will print. Any ideas?

What happens when you try to print? Do you get an error message?

In OpenOffice.org, check your paper size by clicking Format->Page.

Hi Andrew
Thanks for the reply.

I do not get an error message, it just doesn't print, yet I can print from the page view preview if I click on the print icon, it will not print if I go to print under under the file menu. I have never seen anything like this before.

You should read the Forum Survival Guide.

If you van print from the print preview but not from page view, maybe the print dialog box doesn't work. Anyway, always publish your system and OOo version.
