Re: Hey Macromedia! Re: FLASH: Printing from Flash

[Mike Weiland]

Hi Brad,


  I sent an email to Matt regarding the particulars it was rather long so I

did not send it to the list, if you would like it as well let me know and I

will send it off list. Believe me it is not a driver issue, I can print from

Netscape and other programs, I can even print from Netscape if I right click

and choose print from the popup menu! I have recieved this in house on 2 PCs

1 with a local printer and the other with a Network printer. My beta testers

recieved the error if they used Netscape and not IE. I have tried on an HP3,

an Alps 1500 (both local & Network) and an HP 360C all with the same effect.


  I have since fixed my site so that printing with Netscape is not an issue,

but I still have the adbanner example on my site that I used where I stated

I could print locally but not once I uploaded to my server it stopped

working. That URL is

http://www.certificatecreator.com/certificates/templates/forms/ad_banner.htm


  Sorry for not giving enough info, but this thread actully started Feb. 7

when I first identified the problem.
