Envelope Printer program not sending data to any printer

(1/4) > >>

retiredtech:
Prior to 1.4.0 the program printed just fine on my network printers.  With both 1.4.0 and 1.4.1 when you hit the "print envelope" the button blinks but no data is sent to any printer.  I tried various envelope sizes and trays but none of the printers show any data in their print queue.   All existing programs will print (Word, WordPerfect etc.)
Running Windows 7 Pro. 
Any ideas?

By the way your verification is a real pain!!

The print code in the program hasnt changed at all. Same in the current version as it has been in all the others. Have you restarted the system yet to allow everything to refresh? I know some people leave their systems on all the time and sometimes windows just needs rebooted to refresh everything. The program is priting fine for me on 5 different systems that I have all printing to different printers.

So lets start with the basics and do a reboot first.

The code in the program is very basic, I just use the printer.print command and the OS itself handles it from there. So if it isnt printing then something else is going on, so we need to cover all the bases :wink:

Resolved (kind of)

I finally loaded the program on my 8.1 machine and it works just fine.  So there is no issue with your program.  My Win 7 machine has got something that is preventing that print routine from working.  I will work on it and it I find a definitive solutions I will post it here.
Sorry for the "cry wolf".

Should have done this in the beginning....Removed program and cleaned up all traces, then download and re-install....All is well!

So reinstalling my program got it to work again?

Thats odd, same code, came version program.

Of course the installer for the program does include the VB6 runtime files and will update them if for any reason a runtime file is missing or out of date.
