IE printing problems SP1

Hi all
running vista 64 SP1 RTM
cannot print from IE nor print preview unless I turn UAC off in control panel. Cannot print even if opening IE as admin.
(some sort of error message about C:/users/username/appdata/local/temp/low/ and some files therein.)
Note, on a different machine with vista 32 SP1 beta2 refresh (never got around to installing SP1 RTM on this box) - UAC enabled and no print problem at all
any thoughts?

Re: IE printing problems SP1

Was it printing fine before SP1?

What make and model of printer are you using?

Does it print correctly from all other applications?

Re: IE printing problems SP1

this was a clean install of vista 64 SP1 RTM
the printer is an HPofficejet 6100 series.
on this machine all other apps DO print even if UAC is on.

on my older machine, with vista 32 SP1 beta2 IE prints fine even with UAC on.

Re: IE printing problems SP1

32 or 64 bit IE. The only way I know how to tell is using task manager. If
it has the *32 it's the 32 bit version. Attempt using the other version and
see if you get the same result.
