Printing Issues

[Kent-24]

Just installed 2.4. Like the way it looks.  Anyways I had a simple picture with some text in it,
adjusted the dimensions to be about 10"x7" and tried to print. Paper just goes right thru the
printer.

So I grabbed any picture and print. The size was very big as only a very small section of the
picture printed.

Everything seemed to be ok in the earlier version I was using just the other day. any
suggestions?

Print.exe included with 2.4.x is buggy.  The short-term fix is to
replace it with winprint.exe from 2.2.17

OK
I copied winprint from 2.2 to my desktop and am going to reinstall 2.4 and add this file.
Wish me luck.
