At work we use Outlook 2003 on exchange, and I have this user who cannot print certain emails. I forwarded one of those to me, and sure enough I can't print it either. I forwarded it to my home account, VPNed in (on another machine then my main work one) opened it in Outlook through imap, still, can't print. Tried in thunderbird, no problem printing. Testing with the PDF creator but also with physical printers.
This is basically what happens, if you hit the print icon there is no reaction at all. no printer icon in sys tray, no hour glass. nothing. If you click file / print you get the printer selection, but then when you select the printer and hit print, nothing. Other emails will print ok.
These particular emails that don't work are html email, but this is not affecting all html emails. I've been going through my saved emails to see if I get the same issue and all of those print fine (just testing with pdf writer mind you, but if I can get that far it means it will work)
The ultimate solution is: don't print. But that wont really go well with the user. Some people always insist on having to print everything.
I've done some google searching and seems others have seen this issue as well but I found little to no solution. This is a really messed up issue.
