Cant print from Print tab have to use File >>> Print

[Carlo.mullen]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel Hello,

We have a suite of Macs, that student use for their studies. If a student is working in Word and they wish to print they have to go File >>> Print, for some users they are use to clicking the print option from the Word tab bars, if they do so, the document wont get sent to the printer.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks

First, confirm that Office, OS X *and* printer drivers are fully updated on
each system exhibiting the problem.

Second, run Disk Utility - Repair Disk Permissions.

Third, make certain that the appropriate printer is selected as the Default
in System Preferences.

Fourth, restart the Macs.

If the problem persists you'll need to provide more detail as far as network
as opposed to local, whether the problem occurs only in Word, etc.

As far as i have been informaed as the technician is that its only occuring in Word, i need to delve further to see if its all the Office products, and to check settings.

Will post back on this, thanks
