Christiaan Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 When I updated to VW 11.5 my printers disappeared from the print dialogue box (even though they're available for all other applications) so the only way I can print is to save as a PDF first and print that. Does anyone know the easiest way to get my printers back? I've tried deleting them from Printer Setup and adding them again but this doesn't do the trick. Quote Link to comment
Delmer Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 This is a long shot but did you try going into Print Setup before attempting to print? Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 Yeah, the printers have disappeared from both the Print Setup and Print dialogue boxes. Quote Link to comment
Kevin Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Be sure that you have run Disk Utility to repair permissions. This is something I always do after installing a new program. Wish I had a concrete answer for you. Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 Yeap, before and after. Also did a disk repair using Mac OS X CD before I updated. Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 I'm starting to think a re-install might be the next step. Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 Did re-install and problem has gone away. Guess I should have done that ages ago. Thanks for your comments. Quote Link to comment
Kevin Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 What did you re-install. Was it VW or the OS? Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted April 15, 2005 Author Share Posted April 15, 2005 They're gone again today. I'm pretty sure the only thing I did since is install WinDoor. Quote Link to comment
