printer button "grayed" out
I have my printer set up as a network printer via a workgroup switch and my
DSL modem/router. I use IE7 and Outlook Express 6, and noticed that the printer button is grayed out when I am on the Inbox page, so I cannot print an email without opening it first. My other home computer uses the same programs and I can print directly from the Inbox page (printer is not grayed). The only difference is the second computer has a printer connected with a parallel cord. Any ideas on how to "fix" the first computer so the printer button is not grayed?

printer button "grayed" out
The e-mail has to be open, either in the Preview Pane, or in its own window.
Are you viewing in the Preview Pane and still have the Print command grayed out? Does Ctrl+P start the printer? Or File | Print? Also note that if you have the preview Pane disabled, and then enable it, the Print button will stay grayed out until you use File | Print once.
