square prints where text box is but ...

[PattyR]

Hi
I have a text box in a document. It does not have a border/line on it. The
first time I print its fine. The second time I print it or any other similar
document, it prints with a square where the text box is. The text in the box
is there too, but its printing the line around the text. I can't figure out
why it does it fine the first time but every time after, it prints the line.
Please help.
Patty

Is this with a particular document, only, or can you reproduce it in any
document?

If the former, I'm guessing some sort of document corruption.

It doesn't happen with my co-worker. We both are using Word 2003.
It is a document created for people to use where the top portion is always
the same using a text box for part of the top. When I restart my computer,
its fine for the first one I print. Every time after, it does the lines
where the text box is. Whether its the same document or a different document
with the same stuff on top.
It doesn't show in print preview either. Only when it prints. Driving me
crazy.

Strange. I'd try reinstalling the printer driver on the affected machine.
