You have the choice to either print direct to printer as you've found out or
to choose an alternative antivirus product.

Yes - Norton Antivirus. Any idea what I can do to fix this? Or do I just
need
to accept the fact that I can't print through the spooler anymore? Since
the
last time I could print was in September, I'm guessing this occurred when
the
software (Norton) did its last auto-update.

Thanks for the response - actually I solved my problem LATE last night,
and
believe it or not, it's the spooler. I can print when going directly to
my
printer, but not through the spooler. So, now I'm off to find out how
to
replace the corrupted spooler...

Wish me luck.

I have no experience in Quark Express, couldn't even tell you what
kind
of
application it is.

When did this problem occur? If you do a clean installation of XP
with
SP2,
and then install Microsoft Office (and ONLY Office) can you print from
each
application correctly.

Since you can print from Internet Explorer and Outlook (or perhaps
Outlook
Express) there is no problem in the actual installation of the printer
and
its connectivity with either Windows XP or your hardware. The problem
lies
elsewhere.... and probably beyond the scope of this newsgroup.

I can't print to my HP DeskJet 722C (parallel printer, LPT1)from any
applications (or a command prompt) other than Internet Explorer 6.0
and
Microsoft Outlook in Windows XP. I've tried uninstalling and
resinstalling
the printer, installing all Windows XP updates, and uninstalling and
reinstalling applications (these include
Word, Excel, Access, Adobe InDesign, Quark Xpress, Adobe
Illustrator,
Adobe
Acrobat, Adobe FrameMaker, Adobe Photoshop). It sounds like the
printer
is
going to print, but then spits out blank pages for each page in the
document.

I can print a test page, and I can print from Outlook and Internet
Explorer,
so I know the computer and printer are talking to each other.

Can anybody help?
