I'm having a problem printing a document that contains a table with many
equations and pictures. This document is a formula sheet for my electrical
engineering class, to study from and when I goto print it the equations don't
print, except for the bars in the equations. Everything else prints, but the
equations don't. I even tried to export it to a pdf and the pdf will have
the equations missing too. The print preview will show everything fine.

When I take out the pictures the equations will print fine. I have tried
several different text wrapping around the pictures to see if that helps and
it does not. The pictures are in a different cells than the text and
equations.

Any help would be awesome. I can also email the file to someone if they
want to look at it.

Travis, this is a known problem with Office 2007. Normally when
troubleshooting a printing problem, it's a good first step to
update your printer driver, but the fact that you have the same
problem when creating a PDF is an indication that updating the
printer driver wouldn't help. In fact, I have had the same
problem as you describe. I updated my printer driver and it
didn't help.

One thing you might try is printing to a different model of
printer. My main printer is a HP LJ 1200, and the Equation
Builder equations don't print. If I print to my HP DJ 882c or my
Dell 3100cn, the entire document prints perfectly, equations and
all.

I'm hoping for a fix to this with SP-1.

Thanks, I thought it was a bug, and was going to submit it but couldn't find
where so I figured it was just as good to ask here. I have the newest driver
from hp, I have a 2605dn which is hooked up thru the network.

Any other way I can produce this without these errors?

Not that I have found, but perhaps one of the MVPs knows a trick
or two.
