Printer Quirk

I have an HP 932C Deskjet printer that works just fine with
my Gateway computer running W-2000/Pro. I just switched it
to my other computer, an HP running Vista Ultimate. Printer
works (mostly) fine as near as I can tell. I have found one
quirk so far. When I select a portion of a document, and
the hit print, and then on the print menu I select print
selection and then OK, the printer prints the whole
document, instead of just the selected portion.

Any idea how I can fix this?

Thanks, and best regards to all.

Re: Printer Quirk

I don't know a fix but you could copy and paste as a new doc and print it
that way.
When I have a multiple page doc I will select just the page I want to print
in the print menu.

Probably because the Vista drivers you're using don't support that feature.
Where did the Vista drivers come from?
Check here for the latest drivers:
