Hi, I have a VB6 ActiveX DLL that we use for printing. It iterates through the printers collection to set the printer to the one the user requested. This is called from ASP (VB Script) pages, and from a VB Web Class application. The problem is, sometimes the printers collection is empty, so it fails to print.

I am getting strange print-related error messages when trying to create (not print!) reports. For example, when I click 'new' to create a report then choose 'design view', I get an error message that says: 'There was a problem retrieving printer information for this object. The object may have been sent to a printer that was unavailable.' When I choose 'report wizard', I can go through all of the steps but then I get an error message...

If I'm off base, please feel free to let me know. I performed a test printing the font of "OCR A Extended" to a printer in my office but didn't reproduce the problem on my side. The font was printed properly in my test. The model of the printer I...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
