HP Laserjet 1606dn
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hi,

I can no longer print Excel documents to my HP Laserjet 1606dn printer.  It will print every other type of document, but just not Excel documents.  I have this same problem posted to the Office 365 forums.  I do recieve an error message that gives several different reasons the Excel document might not be printing.  There is no number associated with the error message.  It just says possibly out of memory.

I have restarted the machine, reinstalled the printer, reinstalled Office 365, and nothing seems to work.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Ricky

Welcome to HP forums, I see that you are unable to print from MS Excel.

Meanwhile: follow the below steps to 

The issue could have been caused by the security settings changed on the user profile. 

You may either create a new user, login with the new user profile to install the printer or Turn off the UAC from the control panel and Restart the PC. 

 

Here are the steps to configure UAC settings: 

Open User Account Control Settings by clicking the Start button and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type uac, and then click Change User Account Control settings. 

To turn off UAC, move the slider to the Never notify position, and then click OK.  

if you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. You will need to restart your computer for UAC to be turned off.
