Can not print multiple Word documents in sequence

[RL]

A user on our LAN has me stumped. If she selects multiple files (say 5 Word
documents in a folder), right-clicks in the highlight area, selects "print",
nothing happens [Word should flash 'open', then send print jobs one at a
time.]. The OS is Windows XP Pro; Office 2003; printing to a networked HP
LaserJet 4050n from a Dell OptiPlex P-4.

Other workstations handle this fine and are configured the same.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

You might try asking the experts in word.printingfonts.

Thanks Cindy... but where is the newsgroup called "word.printingfonts"? I see
"New Users", "Application Errors", etc., but not "word.printingfonts".

Thanks. Yesterday I posted my issue in the "word.printingfonts" newsgroup as
was suggested.

I'm curious: why in that newsgroup? All the documents were created using
Word installed on the machine having the problem. I can randomly select Word
documents (any number of them) from that machine and it won't print them - it
does nothing. Or, I can create, say, three Word documents and try these newly
created ones. Same thing, it does nothing. [I have no problem opening each
document and printing them in succession.]

I think I'll try some Excel files for a test.

Anyway - Thanks,

Why that newsgroup? Because it's the one devoted to printing issues in Word,
which is what seemed to be your problem.
