Adobe Reader will not print

Recently, when trying to print from Adobe Reader, I get only an information box. See image.

Any suggestions?

Update Adobe? You should have Adobe Reader 9. And check that the pdf is unlocked. Also this is Adobes page for their drivers.

 

Adobe Reader 9 - download here. It is recommended to uninstall earlier versions before download of new Adobe.

 

Update to version 9 cured my ills. Thanks!!

 

Great. :-D You should use Secunia PSI RC3 so that this won't happen again.

 

I used the online version of Secunia that day, but had also used it about 5 days before that. Version 9 did not show up the first time, so apparently they released another version (without my permission I must add :cool) within that 5 days.

 

Haha! :-D I have the desktop program installed and I love it. :heart

 

I would install it, but I am a bit concerned about yet ANOTHER installed application on my PC. I have a decent desktop that was built for me by a friend of mine, but it is approaching five years old. I get nervous about installing anything that smells like a resource sucker. This oldie-but-goodie will soon be retired to use as a media player for my new Sharp 46" LCD TV and associated surround sound system (aaahhhhhh :cool). By Christmas, I'll be replacing it with a newer PC.

BTW, what's the general opinion about buying desktop PCs from Dell Outlet? The prices seem very reasonable, the selection is good and Dell has a generally strong reputation for servic and support.
Open for opinions, suggestions and comments.

 

Well, there is a first time for everything. I've heard a lot about Dell but never this! Never! Look in Dell's support forums. You'll find it hard to confirm this strong reputation for "service and support".

I would go for a company that unlike Dell have auto-update of all their drivers. I know that Lenovo (IBM) will even update your Bios remotely. Just like Microsoft update their programs for you. Now that's what I call service and support! :-D

 

PD: I didn't know Secunia had an online version, Toehead410...

 

Online scanner works great, but it is SLOOOOOOW.

My comment about Dell's service and support is from personal experience concerning my wife's Inspiron laptop. The few times I have needed them, they were professional, very clear and seemed genuinely interested in handling our concerns. With that and the low prices on outlet machines, I have to consider them for my next purchase. I have no experience with Lenova. Can they be competitively priced? Do they have an outlet for refurbs, scratch and dent, etc? I am a bargain hunter (spelled c-h-e-a-p s-k-a-t-e) from way back.

 

Thanks for that tip. Will be useful. :-D
