How do I stop the infomation balloon from popping up every time I.

[Guest]

Every time I send a document to the printer, an information balloon pops up
from the printer icon in the task bar telling me that I have sent document
xyz to print. Does anyone know how I can stop it ?

Thanks,
Barbara

Likely via the printer driver if it is possible at all.

Sorry. This is a newsgroup dedicated to questions about Access, a
Microsoft database program. It appears your question may not be related to
these subjects. The Microsoft help system is not all that clear and may have
misdirected you here.

It is best to ask your questions in a newsgroup dedicated to the
subject of your question. You should find people better able to address
your problem there.

Note: It is always best to indicate the name and version of any
program(s) you may be using when asking a question and also indicate the
operating system (like Windows XP or 98) when you ask a question.

**This newsgroup is for general questions about Microsoft Access, which is
the Microsoft Office Systems database.**

But, since we care about everyone here...

Open the printers folder(start / printers and faxes) and
choose File / Server Properties. This will open the Print Server Properties
dialog box.
Select the tab called 'Advanced', and
locate the 'Show informational notifications for..." check boxes. There are
two, one for local printers, and one for network printers.
Uncheck the ones that apply to you and
click Apply.
Test print something to verify that the balloon is popped.

Ok, well, I didn't ask the question, and it had nothing to do with Access,
but I'm quite pleased to learn how to pop that balloon permanently! Thanks!
