Print of monthly style calendar hangs Outlook

J

JR Hester

Outlook 2007 SP1 on Windows XP connecting to Exchange Server 2007

Our organization just installed Exchange server 2007 and moved all profiles
from 2003( or maybe 2002, I am not sure) to 2007. Every time I attempt to
print a monthly style calendar Outlook simply hangs. My only solution is to
open task manager and end the outlook task.

I was a test subject on Exchange server 2007 for the past two months and had
no problem printing teh monthly calendar until last week. HAs nayone else
experienced a similar problem? Do you have any suggestions for printing a
monthly calendar, short of teh calendar assistant.

BTW, weekly and daily calendars print just fine, it is just eth monthly
calendar I have problems with.

Thanks in advance

Diane,

Thanks forpointing me in that direction. It seemed an unlikely colution as I
had tested the issue on two other computers and received the same "hang"
results. I did however rename the OTLPRNT file on my normal workstation and
the calendar printed. I have not tyested on teh other workstations at this
time.

I did manage to break teh process again and discovered what causes the
failure.
I have always set teh option to print full pages-- in 2007 - I unchecked the
Print exactly one month per page checkbox-- that is the culprit. It appears
that in the 2007 version, Outlook cannot print July 1st , 2nd and 3rd data on
teh same page as June 29th and 30th-- BTW i also set it to print only
workdays.

Just passing this along in case someone else may stumble upon this
aggravation.

Thanks again
