Can't print from Office 2004

Geek · 04-30-2007, 02:49 PM

After applying some recent updates to my OS my Word printing is now busted. Office does have the latest patches installed, I made sure of that. It just says "Word can't print due to a problem with the current printer". That's any printer, even PDF. Any suggestions before I delete and reinstall?

Try deleting only the stuff in preferences this should cause Office to reset.

Nope. Gonna try the uninstall method when I get a chance. That's one thing I wish OS X would have is an uninstaller for apps...

You can get them but the need is not huge. Beware that you could put a fresh install and still not work. Delete the files in ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft

Yeah, that's where I deleted them from and it still didn't work.
