When trying to print in Microsoft Publisher on the Dell 946 I get the message "cannot load printer driver". I can print in Word and Excel and have had no problems printing in anything else with the 946. Dell desktop is only 6 months old. Windows Vista

Please try re-installing the printer by following the instructions below. It's possible that Vista(very stubborn) may have installed the improper drivers and this is what is causing poor communications between programs.
Disconnect your printer. Download and run this patch to completely remove the printer from your computer.
Restart your computer.
Download the proper drivers.
XP Drivers
Vista 32-bit Drivers
All other drivers
Install the proper drivers. You'll be prompted when to connect your printer(powered on)
