Lock-up upon printing

[pjjolly]

Using Outlook 07 I'm having an issue with printing calendars for January. I
click Filerint and when the print dialogue box appears I make sure Monthly
view is selected and I set the date range for Jan 1, 2010 - Jan 29, 2010 (I
don't need the 30-31 as they are a weekend). When I click OK the dialogue box
with the printer appears and registers Page 1, then Page 2, but then it
freezes with the dialogue regarding Page 2 still on the screen.

I have had this occur on two separate printers. Both of them (the printers
themselves) displayed the name of the document ("Outlook Calendar") and
indicated that they were receiving communication, but neither printed
anything. The on-screen printer dialogue displays the status as "spooling".
Simply canceling the job does not solve the problem, Outlook has to be
completely shut down and restarted for the printer to print anything in the
log behind my calendar.

Oddly when I print the calendar without changing the date range, but instead
scroll up and down in monthly view, and check print preview to see when I've
got it right, it does not freeze. Also, in those cases the dialogue only
shows one page being communicated to the printer. Because of this, I'm
assuming this has something to do with the number of weeks in January and
some glitch in printing a monthly view with more weeks than will fit on a
single page, but I thought I'd throw it against the wall and see what sticks,
just in case someone else has a similar problem.

Thanks,
Paul

Sorry, I cant replicate or offer a specific fix.

However, in case your still hitting a brick wall with this issue, you
may want to consider using a Outlook printing App.
Perhaps Wincalendar (converts your Outlook calendar to MS Word & Excel
format) or another of the printing apps listed here may help:
