From time to time I need to print large batches of images for which the batch print functionality available through File > Thumbnails is excellent. However, when I recently had to do some printing of this sort I noticed that it was no longer possible on my computer running Windows 10 x64 in spite of the fact that printing from other applications to any of the available printers was OK. What I mean by this is that the print dialog wouldn't even show up in IrfanView after pressing Ctrl+P/selecting File > Print/clicking the respective toolbar icon. At that time I used v.4.36 x86.
I tried the following to fix the issue:
Is there anything else I might try in order to be able to print from IrfanView again?
Thanks.
I tried the following to fix the issue:
- Search the FAQ: no solution found there.
- Search this forum: I found many threads describing this exact issue but none of them contained any solution (if a thread was marked as "solved" then the..err.."solution" was "it started working again by itself").
- Some posts on this forum suggested that rebooting the computer may help but, alas, in my case it did not.
- Upgrade to the latest version (4.42): first I tried x64 since I run an x64 OS but the problem persisted. So I installed the x86 version as well which, sadly, did not improve the situation one bit.
- Run IrfanView with administrative privileges: no change.
- Run IrfanView in compatibility mode (Win7/8): no change.
- Run IrfanView with administrative privileges TOGETHER WITH compatibility mode (Win7/8) enabled: no change.
- Delete the configuration file from C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\IrfanView and restart IrfanView: no change.
Is there anything else I might try in order to be able to print from IrfanView again?
Thanks.
