Greetings: I cant print from pmview now. Two days ago all was fine. I've regisstered and reinstalled PMView with no change.

With a file displayed, when I select "print" I am presented with the message "Unable to create printer device context".

My system is OS2 Warp 4, fp 15 with a Lexmark Optra color 40 printer.

Suggestions please.

Thanks. TimW

Try running PMView with the default settings:

pmview /ini=brandnew.ini

If running PMView with the default settings helps, then delete the "PMView 2.0" application key "Printer" entries from OS2.INI using IniMaint or UniMaint. (If you don't know how to do this, then UNINSTALL PMView and reinstall it. Beware though that this action [uninstalling] will reset ALL your PMView settings to the defaults).

If running PMView with the default settings doesn't help, then uninstall + reinstall the printer driver. Then everything should be fine.
