Default Printing Problem with Office 2003

I wonder if the spooler.exe is different in Windows XP?

Windows XP comes with printer drivers. I can only assume it found your

hardware and
installed the proper drivers. Why it wouldn't work on 2000 is a mystery.

It
work great. No problems now. I'm not sure why this worked. Anyone

have
any ideas?

Thanks everyone for your help.

No, if you can't get it to run on Windows 2000, XP isn't going to make

What model is this printer?
It is recommended to completely uninstall the printer before

re-installing
or
renewing drivers.
Read the below help article or go back to Xerox and look around for an

uninstall
utility.

I'm going to try to update the printer drivers first. I'll let

you

later today if it works. Thanks for the quick replys.

I found a post on another website that said it was
a Microsoft issue and that Microsoft should release a hotfix

for
it.

Yeah... Printer manufacturers love to blame the problems with

their
faulty
drivers on the software manufacturers...

Default Printing Problem with Office 2003

We have a similar problem with Word 2003 and Powerpoint 2003 with Windows
2000.
We have installed latest drivers from Xerox with no help. Jpeg images get
printed
oddly, picture is flattened and printed three times underneath. The space
taken by
these three flattened pictures matches the space of original image.

We have a few workstations with Windows XP, and there is no problem.

Upgrading the operating system is not a solution for us, could someone
tell where to look for help?

mika, Finland

Upgrading is the only solution. But it is a Microsoft issue from my
sources. They do not expect to have a hotfix out until fall, so I'd either
upgrade or deal with the screaming users.
