Default Print is grayed out - cannot print messages

For some unknown reason, when I attempt to print some opened Inbox
messages. i.e., File - the Print drop down menu selection is grayed
out and printing is impossible.

Anyone have an idea what causes this and how can it be resolved?

TIA,

Mary

So you are saying that for most messages you can print?

Go to Tools, Options, Security and make sure that OE is set to the
Restricted Zone. That will prevent OE from running scripts or ActiveX.
One of those might be running in the problem messages and preventing the
printing.

OT & FYI:

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.outlooke xpress is not a newsgroup
carried on the MS newsserver.

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlooke xpress will soon be
dropped from the MS newsserver, most likely before
microsoft.public.windows.outlookexpress.general is dropped.

See http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.mspx

OE-specific newsgroup (at least for now):
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...xpress.general
