Hi,

Have you Installed the Printer Driver properly...?
If not, Install (from the CD given along with printer)
and Make this printer as "Default Printer"
Can you print from other programs like Word/Excel..?

Hi,

Set the Printer as Default and try Printing using the "Printer Object"

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Printer.Print "PRODUCTION REPORT FOR THE MONTH"
  2. Printer.Print "SORT BY ASSURED"
  3. Printer.NewPage
  4. Printer.EndDoc
  5.  
Regards
