hello,

I'm trying to help someone that is having problems in both PowerPoint and
Word (2007) when they have an embedded picture. The user experinces random
printer problems (a black horizontal line, slides not printing, etc.). In
the case of the "black line", it appears randomly...sometimes running through
the picture, sometimes on page 1 and sometimes on page 16. She is able to go
back and reprint the affected page normally without a problem.

The printer has been checked out by an HP technician and said to be
fine....She has also tried printing using all the available drivers with no
luck...

Thanks!
 
It sounds to me like the pictures and content she is sending to the printer
are too big for it to handle well. Does she get the bars if she prints just
part of the documents? Also, what happens if she reduces the quality of the
photos? Do the lines go away?

A couple questions:

- How was the picture embedded in PPT/Word? If not via Insert Tab, Picture, have
her try that with the same picture.

- What format is the picture file in?

- How large a file is it, and how large is the picture on the page?
