| MS photo editor won't print w/ WIN XP & Word 2003 | Configuration: |
I like to use MS photo editor for editing and printing my digital images. My company recently provided me with a Dell D800 laptop running WIN XP Pro and Office 2003. I can still open MS photo editor, which I copied over to the new computer, and edit my digital images. But when I try to print I get the following error "Microsoft Photo Editor has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." and must close Photo Editor to continue. Does anyone know of a way to make Photo Editor work & print in this environment, like via a registry change. I believe there was an earlier such change to enable Photo Editor to work fully with Office 2000.
Photo Editor came with Office 97, which I still have. Perhaps I could dual load Word 97 along with Word 2003 and choose Word 97 when I want to run Photo Editor? I'm not sure that this would work even if I did this. The incompatibility is maybe with WIN XP, don't know.
Any help would be appreciated.

Here is what I believe to be the problem. Office 2003 installs a printer called "Microsoft Office Document Image Writer". The name of this "printer" when combine with the driver name is too long for Photo editor to handle. When I go to print it seems to always default to this driver and cannot handle the combined length of the name. Therefore, I have renamed the "printer" to "MS Office DocImage Writer" and the problem is now fixed.
As for the Photo editor always defaulting to this "printer", I do not know why this happens or how to fix it. I do see some reference to this problem and that a service pack for office 2000 can fix it --> http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;270141. For me, as long as I can use Photo editor I am happy. |
