Printer Error Number 5

Printer Error #5 can be generated by at least 2 reasons:

AccountEdge requires that you have a default printer selected on your computer system. If no default printer is selected, or no printer driver is installed, Printer Error #5 is displayed. To resolve this:

Windows:
Select a default printer in Windows by going to your Control Panel > Printers. Highlight your Printer and go to File on then Menu Bar and choosing Set as Default.

Mac:
On the Mac, versions 10.5 and 10.6, select Print and Fax in the System Preferences, and set the default printer.
On the Mac, version 10.4, open the Print Center (Applications > Utilities > Print Center) and highlight the printer you want to set as default. Click on the Make Default button on the top left of this window.

If the correct printer is already set as the default, and you get Error #5, try setting another printer as the default printer. Then select and set the desired printer as the default, and reboot the machine. This sometimes clears the problem.

If the problem isn't cleared on a Windows system, User Access Control (UAC) is being used on Windows Vista or Windows 7.

In cases where UAC is being used, you can run AccountEdge (Premier Accounting) in a Compatibility mode. This compatibility mode will permit AccountEdge (Premier Accounting) to run in XP Compatibility mode, and run with Administrator privileges. Since this is a potential security risk, we can only recommend that you consult your IT
staff for proper implementation.
