Font problem (Courier New) printing report

[jfp]

If i have a label (in the report header, but that probably does not
matter) with font set to "Courier New" (or "Courier New CE", i did not
bother trying the other variations) i get a PCL error when i try to
print although the report preview is fine. If i change the font to
"Courier" everything is fine. I have tested this on (2) different PCs,
so i doubt that the Windows installation itself is at fault.

Any Ideas ?

(Access 2002; original distribution, NO Service Packs)

Try printing word document with "Courier new" font

If it's not working the problem is in your printer

Good luck

I have used Courier New in the past with no issues -- i just tried again
and still OK. So ... something weird in Access ??

Note:
Word offers me only the choices "Courier" and "Courier New".
Access additionally offers "Courier New CE", "Courier New Turkish" and a
few other international flavors. Does this mean that Access is handling
fonts on its own (NOT via the guts of Windows)? Sort of sounds contrary
to the basic concepts of Windows as an "operationg system".
