-------------------
Voyager has always had trouble printing from a 16bit or higher screen, but
the 8bit screens work fine. Oliver has mentioned this was a problem several
times and although I too would like a good printing browser, I believe this
to be a low priority on his "fix" list. Work arounds for the moment include
dropping back to an 8bit screen or if you have TurboPrint installed, just
do a keyboard sequence of Ctrl-Alt-P, which will grab the screen and print
it graphically. Not the best solution and you may have to do it a couple
of times to get those pesky extra long screens, but it works well.
