Default Default printer disappears in Word

Thanks for the tip. I'll try the Word forum.

Yes, I have tried a System Restore, but it makes no difference.

It is only in Word that the default printer disappers. For example, it is
still there in Excel even when it has disappeared in Word.

Every time I open Word the default printer has "disappeared". I get an
error
message saying the printer has not responded and asking whether I want
to
wait. This makes printing very, very difficult. Does anyone have a
solution.

I am using Vista Home edition, Office 2003 and the printer is an Epson
D78.
I have installed the new driver for the D78 and Vista. I have
uninstalled
and
re-installed Word and the printer, but all to no avail.

Everything worked fine until about 3 days ago.
