Why don't multiple-day events in Outlook 2007 calendar print?

For a workaround it is possible to export the calendar to a pst file on the
network, use a co workers computer running Outlook 2003 to open and print.

I also have the same issue trying to print calendars with multiday events that
extend past one week. The outlook calendar view is fine, but both print
preview and print output show the event running out past the right margin
rather than on the following week. I am using Outlook 2007 on XP SP2 all
latest updates

had the same result. During the original install, the upgrade option was
chosen. Users were upgraded from Outlook 2003.

Sorry for the delayed response -- I never got a notification that this thread

Did you do a clean installation of Office 2007 or did you reuse your profile
from Outlook 2003? (It's OK if you reused the .PST file, I'm asking about
the profile because sometimes older profiles cause problems when they're
reused in Outlook 2007.)

Jocelyn,

Print Preview shows exactly the same as Print...in other words, they both
show either the shell of a multi-day event with no words inside the shell or
they both don't show anything for a multi-day event except to push the other
appointments lower, apparently to make room for the multi-day event even
though it doesn't show. What prints is exactly the same as the preview and
vice versa.

After your last response, I did download and install all available Office
updates...no change.

One discovery leads me to believe the problem lies within Outlook 2007.
After I installed Office 2007, including Outlook, I had reason to go back a
couple of months in the Calendar and add some multi-day entries for record
keeping purposes. When I went back to look at those months, the multi-day
entries which had been entered using Outlook 2003 preview/print perfectly but
those subsequently entered using Outlook 2007 had the above problem...all in
the same month.

I really appreciate you hanging in there with me to try to resolve this
problem!!

I am on Windows XP Pro SP2, but that shouldn't make a difference here...does
it show up in Print Preview? I am not seeing this behavior when I do a print
preview from Day, Week, or Month view in the Daily, Weekly, or Monthly print
styles. What print style are you using? Do you have all the latest updates
from Microsoft Update?

Any multiple day event scheduled in Outlook 2007's calendar either don't
print at all or print with a blank shell with no words inside. When the
shell prints, it extends into margin on the right edge of the page.

No reason to export. Create the PST and COPY the calendar.

If you go into the Page Setup, Format Tab, Layout option you can choose 1 or
2 pages per month, if you choose 1 page per month you get the bug if you
choose 2 pages per month you do not.

If you need 1 month per page print out, select 2 pages per month layout
option and on the Paper Tab select either A4 Half or 1/2 sheet booklet.

I am having the same Outlook calendar print problem as everyone else. I have
a new Dell XPS running Vista with Office 2007, and with all updates. This
problem is peculiar to Outlook 2007. (it worked fine on the previuous
version. Why do we have to use workarounds? Why can't MS just fix it?
