After working fine for quite a while, this morning I can no longer print in PM View. I get a popup window that says', "unable to retrieve printer information"

I removed and reinstalled the printer driver (which is the latest version from HP) without any change.

Printing is fine within other applications.

Below is system information captured within PM View:

Thanks for letting me know that this solved the problem. smile.gif

The next version will do this automatically. If PMView gets to the point that it cannot retrieve the printer information, it will reset the printer info (only the info stored in PMView's own registry, of course) and try again without it. This is the way it should be done and is arguably a bug in the current version (2.32) since it fails to reset to the default info if a problem appears.

Thanks,
