SYMPTOMS
When you print to a Hewlett-Packard (HP) DeskJet 890C Pro printer, only blank pages are printed from the following programs:
 * Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
 * Microsoft FrontPage 2002
 * Microsoft Outlook 2002
 * Microsoft Word 2002



CAUSE
This behavior occurs if the printer driver for the HP DeskJet 890C Pro printer is set to Spool print documents so program finishes printing faster in the Advance settings of the printer's Properties dialog box.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior you must set the HP DeskJet 890C Pro printer's Advance settings to Print directly to the printer. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) Click Start, and then click Printer and Faxes.
 * 2) Right-click the HP DeskJet 890C Pro icon.
 * 3) Click Properties.
 * 4) Click the Advance tab.
 * 5) Click Print directly to the printer.
 * 6) Click OK.
