Printing causes office to crash

[Caroline]

I've been trying to print from both Word and Entourage, and every time I
click print I get the "Office has encountered an error and needs to close. We
are sorry for the inconvenience." Can anyone help? This is a new machine
and I just installed office (the student/teacher edition) a few days ago.
Should I re-install office?

Thanks!

Someone may have a better answer, but if not, see standard troubleshooting
suggestions here: there's a bunch of possibilities to work through before
you reinstall, and never reinstall without running Office Remove first. But
first see if there is an updated printer driver for your OS/printer, check
manufacturer website.
