IE 8 Printer Permission

S

I have an ' unusual ' problem ...not sure if this is the correct group , but
would appreciate any help.

Win 7 HP 64 bit - HP and Canon Printers - IE 8 - Run as Standard User

I am able to print everything successfully to either printer as a standard
user , however , when I try to print a webpage from IE 8 , I get a dialogue
box stating that I don't have permission and should contact the
administrator.

If I choose FILE > PRINT , the printer selection box appears , however ,
instead of one of my printers being selected by default , the AD PRINTER
icon is highlighted and I believe that why I'm receiving the Print
Permission error ? If I select PRINT PREVIEW , it appears as it should ,
however clicking PRINT again brings the error. This only happens in IE 8
BTW.

Thanks for any input

Not much help this, I realise, but I can't help suggesting something. In
IE, open the help and look for help on Network Discovery.

Another of my brilliantly useless suggestions is to try it with a non-IE
browser - if it works then it is some IE setting.

OK, but please remember the thing about Network Discovery.
