Printer Problems?

[groundzero]

Hello everyone, I've been having a problem with the computer at work when using Microsoft Excel, and also when trying to print with other programs. When I open a document in Excel, I get the following error box:

I have to click OK several times for it to disappear. This also (sometimes) happens when I attempt to print from another program. This will sometimes crash the program as well. I've tried searching online about this, but the error message is so general that it brings up a flood of sites trying to sell me printers. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

for starters, I'd try a new driver.

then, if that don't work, remove the printer and re-add it.

then.....


well, let's see how that goes meow

Removing and readding the printer worked.. I have no idea what caused this. If anyone has any idea what I might have done to cause this, please let me know. Otherwise, thanks for the help, guys.

All the applications in office use a default template of some sort - giving information on fonts, margins and default printers... if that info corrupted then it would kick out all kinds of totally useless error messages.

If reinstalling the printer hadn't worked then the next thing would be to delete the default template and restart office.
