Subject: Printing permissions problem under Win7
Date: Mon, 27 Dec 2010 22:51:55 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ifc1ei$g6j$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
I've been running Emacs 21.3.1 under WinXP, and I can print to a network
printer without difficulty using print-buffer. I have the following in
my .emacs file:
(setq printer-name "//Patroklos/HP LaserJet 6L")
I've just installed Emacs 23.2.1 (a newer version than above) under
Win7, and with the same line in my .emacs file, attempts to use
print-buffer fail, and the following appears in my messages buffer:
Spooling with options (page headers are not supported)...
direct-print-region-helper: Opening output file: permission denied,
//Patroklos/HP LaserJet 6L
Printing from other applications to this printer on the Win7 machine
works fine. Running Emacs as Administrator does not help.
Any idea what I need to do to enable printing from this version of Emacs
on this OS?
Thanks,
Scott
