Bob, No, it surely is no bug. It's exactly the way MapInfo works. Every window is assigned a certain printer, and if you have set MapInfo to store this information in workspaces, MapInfo does so. You can change this setting under Settings > Preferencens > Startup.
To change these settings, and can see one way: Search and replace.... UltraEdit - or the new UEStudio - could be a tol for doing this as it can search and replace in files. So you could search for "HP 2500CM Printer" and replace this with "HP 2800CM Printer" (if this is the "name" of the printer under Windows) HTH, Peter Horsbøll Møller GIS Developer, MTM Geographical Information & IT COWI A/S Odensevej 95 DK-5260 Odense S.

When I opened one workspace in notepad, I noticed it referenced the printer 7 times(see below), even though there is only one layout in the workspace. Is this a bug in MI Pro, that it keeps appending the following. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Set Window FrontWindow() Printer Name "HP 2500CM Printer" Orientation Portrait Copies 1 Papersize 1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there a way to update the hundreds of workspaces I currently have saved to reflect the new printer? Some workspaces contain multiple layouts with different size papers and orientations like 8x11 landscape, 8x11 portrait, 11x17 landscape or 11x17 portrait. I am using MI Pro 7.8 on XP Professional.
