Printing in Windows Mail

I have been using Windows Vista for a year now. For the first 6 months,
Windows Mail worked just fine but now when I try to print messages, it locks
up and none of the buttons work. The only way I can get it to respond again
is by using the Task Manager to shut it down and then restart it. And even
then it sometimes will not work.

Re: Printing in Windows Mail

Do all other applications print correctly?

Re: Printing in Windows Mail

Besides not printing in Windows Mail, I can no longer print in IE or Yahoo
mail when using IE.

Re: Printing in Windows Mail

I have the same problem, Windows mail and Internet Explorer 7 (Vista) both
hang when given a print command. Task manager can stop the process or
reboot. No other options.

HP Printer driver for Vista downloaded and uninstall/reinstall. Same
result. Prints fine from Word 2000 or Excel or MSWorks or other apps. Just
not IE or Windows Mail.

Any suggestions

Thanks be to God.

Re: Printing in Windows Mail

Get the updated version of HP Director from HP. It's a known issue with HP
Director.
