publisher 2003 wont load dell printer drivers

[Jenis7399]

I have publisher 2003 and a dell 926 printer, every time I try to print a
publisher document or even do a print preview i get a box that states "cannot
load printer drivers" I have done all updates through publisher and dell.
Does anyone have any help for this?

I've heard of this happening before - and with the same printer. Have you
tried uninstalling the printer drivers and installing it again?

If that doesn't work, try setting a different printer driver as your default
but actually print it with the Dell 926 printer.

Let me know if these options don't work.

Posted awhile ago, this solution works
"Cannot Load Printer Driver" A workaround.(This is for folks with Dell Printers
or might work with other printers as well) Posted by Phil.

Go to settings, printer folder, add an HP IIP printer, set it as the
default.When in Publisher,2003 Go to file and print and select the Dell printer.

Any printer driver will work, it doesn't have to be a HP IIP.
