evlich Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Everytime that I try to print something I get the following message:Runtime Error!Program: ....This application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information. This happens on every single program that I try to print from, including notepad. Does anyone know what could be going wrong? Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 You may need to reinstall your drivers or printer software. Uninstall your printer software and reinstall from the disk you recieved when you purchased.What is your printer manufacturer/model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will get rid of any bits of corruption left behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadyassa Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 As Scarecrow Man said a make and model would be handy ;) Has it worked before ?Did you install software as instructions ?My HP printer had to have software installed before even connecting printer.

Including my own I have installed four Epsons, and all were the same instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 Just to add my bit:When you remove the printer software, do it from the Printers and Faxes in the Start menu. Do not do it from Add/Remove.When you re-install, do it EXACTLY according to the instructions given with the printer. Even small deviations from the correct method can result in a faulty, or no, install. This is especially the case with Epson machines.
