word is connecting to printer hang

E

ed skibbe

Office 2004 (student and teacher's edition) newly installed on an iBook
with Panther newly installed.

When I launch Word and either paste from the clipboard into the
document, save or print (those are the only functions I have tested so
far), Word tells me in the status bar that "Word is connecting to the
printer" and the spinning beach ball comes up. Word hangs this way
and my only recourse is to force quit.

the iBook is on an AirPort network and I would like it to share a printer
connected to a G3 on the network.

any advice? the same Office 2004 is working fine on the G3. Office X is
working fine on a Powerbook on the same network.
