I cannot get printing to work, however. I can print from other programs. I have the required programs installed; PrintFile, Ghost & GhostView from when I ran 23.3. When I try to print anything, I get the following message: Formatting...done Spooling... w32-direct-print-region-helper: Opening output file: Permission denied, c:/WSD-3b7ac7d1-ffd7-457b-9414-bcaa7e1ec688.0036 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

If not, maybe your user doesn't have write access to the root directory on drive C? What is the value of temp-file-directory? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

And I have Admin Privilege, since I am the only User. Well, I cannot spot any differences in the related functions between the 2 Emacs versions, so maybe the problem is at some lower level. Can you step with Edebug through the w32 printing code in dos-w32.el, and compare what happens there in the 2 Emacs versions? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
