word crash when formatting margins, header, etc.

[jamie]

When I try to change margins or add a header to a document I see a
"connecting to printer, press esc to cancel" message in the lower left hand
corner and no formatting will occur until I press esc or it crashes.
Sometimes pressing esc will cause it to crash as well. This just began after
a year with no problems. I use vista.

Hi Jamie,

When I try to change margins or add a header to a document I see a
"connecting to printer, press esc to cancel" message in the lower left hand
corner and no formatting will occur until I press esc or it crashes.
Sometimes pressing esc will cause it to crash as well. This just began after

Is this just the one document? All documents? All documents created from a
certain template?

Which version of Word?
