From: Alan Mueller Alan on
Actually I am having exactly the same issue when a client tries to print
MULTIPLE copies to any of his printers from Word 97 on XP Pro. I am guessing
it might be an in compatibilty issue with some update but any information
might help eliminate it. He has XP PRo with all the updates. This used to
work fine but the exact date it quit working I cannot say since he doesn't do
this that often.
