vista/brother printing
I had to set my PC back to factory default. Now I am having problems
printing, I think installation was successful, however when I click print it shows the printer as Brother DCP-130C, but when I click print again instead of printing I get a 'save as' window, can you help me get printing again? -- toodle pip

Sounds like you've set the printer to print to the "FILE:" port. Go to
'Control Panel|Printers', right click the printer, select "Properties", click the "Ports" tab, and make sure its not set to FILE: Hal -- Hal Hostetler, CPBE -- Senior Engineer/MIS -- MS MVP-Print/Imaging -- WA7BGX http://www.kvoa.com -- "When News breaks, we fix it!"
