Creating reports without a printer

On occasion I work from home on developing databases for work. However - I've found that at home (where I don't have a printer) Access will not let me work on reports - I get an error message stating that I must have a printer installed. Is there a way to get around this?
 
Dawn:

Simply install any printer driver (you don't need a printer attached to your
computer.) Install something generic like an HP Laser Jet 4 and set its
output location to LPT1: or a USB port on your machine. Again, you don't
need the printer to actually exist, you simply need a printer driver
installed.
