Anybody out there can help me with a solution?

Re: Printin Problems

 

From that thread:

 

Re-installed IE6 because of printer problem, temporarily fixed or did not

fix printing problem.

 

PaBear suggested:

 

Given the history of this thread, I would suspect that a printer-related

Add-on (Tools > Manage add-ons) is causing the problem (e.g., your installed

printer software might not be Win9x-compatible).

 

Try beginning a new thread about the issue in this newsgroup:

microsoft.public.win98.printing

 

 

Tip: That's not a very busy newsgroup anymore. I'd recommend crossposting

to microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion newsgroup, too.

 

 

 

PA Bear

------------

 

 

Pa's suggestion may be the case, so how about informing us concerning what

the printer is [make and model] and software version being used.

 

Did the printer [from within IE] work before and suddenly quit?

 

If so, try re-installing the printer software.

I see in the original thread you said: "When I send a printing Job, IE6

closes abrutply, failing to trigger the prinitng job", at Bear's urging.

Too bad the overinstall of IE he suggested did not work.

 

(a) As MEB asked, did the printer ever work with IE?

(b) Does it happen no matter what site IE is at?

© What happens when you just select Print Preview...?...

http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/20/1/Print-Preview-displays-html-code-instead-of-displaying-the-page-preview.html

Maybe try the cure for that.

(d) Does printing work well with other apps, say Notepad?

(e) Do you have any BHOs (Browser Helper Objects) installed?

 

Maybe, yea, try reinstalling the printer, as MEB said, as it may need to

put something into the Registry relating to the printer.

 

To see whether you have a BHO...

 

http://www.definitivesolutions.com/ 's BHODemon

This one was free last I knew. It renames the BHO executable & can

"undo" that..

 

http://www.pcmag.com/ 's BHOCop removes a BHO's Registry entries & can

"undo" that. It found a Browser Helper Object called Wavehelper Class,

created by "Wavetop", that was building a monstrosity of an error log

called "Logit.txt" in here. "START button, Find, F/F, Logit.txt"-- see

one?

 

http://windowsxp.mvps.org/toolbarcop.htm

Freeware ToolbarCop also can remove "unwanted Toolbands, Toolbar icons

and Browser Helper Objects". The site says XP-- but the version 3.4

offered seems to be working fine in my Win98!

But it /did/ work, just not for very long =>

http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser/msg/c629ec4b4650d66e

(26 March), then

I´ll look in all these options and try it out.

And I´ll return to tell about the overcome (failure or success).

Thanks!

Yes. Keep us informed. Also...

 

Did it work for a while after you did that over-install of IE? For how

long? Can you recall what you did before it failed again?

 

| Thanks!

 

You are welcome.

Hmmm... I was interpreting that to mean the process of the over-install

of IE worked, but the problem of printing was still there. However, it

could well be as you say-- that the printing problem went & returned.

 

Then-- what was done in the interim, if anything?
