Can't right-click to Print

I recently got a new work PC, and I used to be able to right-click a
doc/picture and there was a "Print" option in the context menu in explorer
that would start the Photo Printing wizard for photos.

Now, it's gone. The main difference I can think of is that I'm now on Office
2003. The wizard still exists on the system, as I've found it from the Office
Picture Manager, when I print from that.

But I'd like to be able to just right-click a file and launch the printing
wizard instead of having to open an app that is clearly not needed(from past
experience).

I've searched google, this forum, Windows Help, MS Support, and I can't find
what setting to change.

Any help?

Click to expand...

==================
Try this, maybe it will restore the option:

go to...Start / Run and type:

"REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and S)

Click...OK.

A dialog box should report the following:

"DllRegisterServer in SHIMGVW.DLL succeeded"
