Run-time error 75

[talkcity]

If somebody can help with this issue, it will be greatly appreciated.

We are using a 3rd party applications for our business. The applications works fine when logged in as admin user. But when logged as a limited user, we get a RUN-TIME ERROR '75'. This error comes when we go to specify the receipt printer (epson tm-u200b : the printer is connected via null modem) or even a laser printer (brother 1440). The applications is developed using VB6. We can print to either printers thru any other application (word or excel) plus the print a test page prints fine. The application is loaded on a stand alone workstation.

standard definition

RUNTIME ERROR 75: "Run-time error 75: path/file access error." This error occurs when a program is installed on a network and the user does not have rights to the program directory. For the program to work properly on a network, users must be given rights by the network administrator.

go back to the vendor of suspected app and ask them to provide a fix to allow "limited user" access to the program instead of admin user.
