the following code together from a little research: Dim AppWord As Word.Application Set AppWord = CreateObject("Word.Application.8") AppWord.Visible = True Set mydoc = Documents.Open(Filename:="file_path", ReadOnly:=True) Application.ActivePrinter = "printer" With AppWord .ActiveDocument.PrintOut Background:=False .Quit SaveChanges:=False End With Set AppWord = Nothing It keeps choking at the print stage ".ActiveDocument.PrintOut Background:=False" with the following error: Run-time error '5142': Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer setup. Prior to this point in the code it has printed an Excel tab http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/cannot-print-from-printer-error-run-time-error/d0bd89da-5f06-41b7-b695-9938552ad122 to this printer. Does anyone have any ideas what is happening or how to fix it? Rick_G04-03-2010, 09:59 AMI got your code to work, but I had to make a few changes: I always use "Option Explicit", which helps avoid simple typos in variable names. I made the new document (mydoc) belong to the AppWord instance. If you already http://www.actuarialoutpost.com/actuarial_discussion_forum/archive/index.php/t-189418.html have Word open, then changes to AppWord would not affect the new document. I had to use the MsgBox to get the correct "name" for the printer. Then I commented that line out. I also modify the active printer that belongs to the AppWord instance. Your code was modifying the Excel printer definition. Option Explicit Dim AppWord As Word.Application Set AppWord = CreateObject("Word.Application.8") AppWord.Visible = True Dim mydoc As Word.Document Set mydoc = AppWord.Documents.Open(Filename:="E:\Data\junk.doc", ReadOnly:=True) 'MsgBox "active printer", , Application.ActivePrinter AppWord.ActivePrinter = "HP 4300 PS no duplex on NE05:" With AppWord .ActiveDocument.PrintOut Background:=False .Quit SaveChanges:=False End With Set AppWord = Nothing Kenny04-03-2010, 11:31 AMThanks for the help Rick. It compiles now. Word opens and closes, but it doesn't actually print. I might try a different printer, but I did use your message box to verify I had the correct name. Any other thoughts? Kenny04-05-2010, 07:29 PMIt is working now. I'm not entirely sure what I did but the above code is essentially what I am using. Kenny04-06-2010, 11:01 AMMore problems today. The program is basically running thro

He was unable to print at all after being able to print without any problems to the same printer.He got a runtime error(Numbered error 5142 word above) when trying to print a word document to a particular printer.After this he tried printing from various applications all with the same runtime error.I decided to deleted the printer and try to reinstall it. When I tried to reinstall it it told me that the printer was no longer attached to the server and it could not reconnect to it. I could ping the printer fine and no one else had issues printing to it.As a second best solution I attached him to another printer but he cant print to that either. There are no error messages it just doesn't print.He is running windows 2000 with Novell client 4.8 SP3.Can anyone help me on this one as I hope I dont have to ghost the machine again.
