Re: Now Microsoft has taken over my Dell laptop and blocks printing Open Office docs on default printer
I have 3 choices for printing (none of which make sense): print to file Create single print job for collated output Use only paper tray from printer preferences. ]I ran a printer test page and the printer model says "Microsoft PWG Raster class Driver"--(I have a Canon MX490 series Printer WS) Perhaps if you could tell me how to get rid of the "Microsoft" it would work again. Most of the documents I try to print, even when I open from the Apache page, say < "The required operation requires elevation." So I can't even try to print.. I've had this new HP since Feb. and it's amazing I got my check book to work and my Print Shop and my Ancestral Quest. It seems a simple word processing program would work as well! grandma joan On Thursday, April 13, 2023 at 08:23:53 AM MDT, Wade Smart wrote: Joan, when you click Print - What is the name of the Printer in the box that says where it is printing to. -- Registered Linux User: #480675 Registered Linux Machine: #408606 Linux since June 2005 On Thu, Apr 13, 2023 at 9:17 AM Joan Bagley wrote: > > Microsoft has now taken over my printer--Is there any way around that > On Wednesday, April 12, 2023 at 09:15:06 PM MDT, Joan Bagley > wrote: > > Attention Steven Ahlers (you answered my desperate plea and it almost >worked.) > My problem is that I cannot open .odt files in Windows 11 on my new HP > laptop.

Re: Now Microsoft has taken over my Dell laptop and blocks printing Open Office docs on default printer
Attention Steven Ahlers (you answered my desperate plea and it almost worked.) My problem is that I cannot open .odt files in Windows 11 on my new HP laptop. So I went to my older Dell with Windows 11 and altlhough it opened and let me edit and save a document I need, it will not print to my default printer. This is constantly getting worse! grandmajoan On Sunday, April 9, 2023 at 03:34:45 PM MDT, Steven Ahlers wrote: If you go to https://www.zamzar.com/ you can get the file(s) converted to .odt format.
