Guest 4justice Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Problem: Each time I download documents,etc...in PDF format, when I try to print said doc(s), a rectangle pops up stating "Unable to begin print job. Is printer available?" I then check if printer is connected...available,etc. It is. Even printed test page just fine. Tried switching from "doc" to "Image" on printer, as suggested @ Adobe help site, to no avail. Any ideas or suggestions out there would be appreciated. Thanks! 4justice

We need to know first what PDF app you use and whether it ever printed OK. (The most recent versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader are not programmed to run under Win98.) If yours used to print OK, list here what changes you made (hardware or software) since this app last printed PDFs OK. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)
Guest Bob Harris Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Re: Continous problem w/Adobe Reader........... A free alternative to Acrobat is Foxit. It is much faster for reading large/complex PDFs. http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader_2/down_reader.htm (download the installer/exe verion, not the msi version) While they also offer optional add-ins for a price, the basic reader is 100% free and works very well.
