set printer error on win2k

[longda]

I get a system error when I try to set my printer to a different printer on my 2000 machine. It says "FOXPROW caused a General Protection Fault in module FOXPROW.EXE at 0001:222D. Choose close, FOXPROW will close.".

I am able to set my network printer the first time in my program like such "set printer to \\Ycmarketway\17laser04\".
When I try and change the printer to a different one I get this error. This only happens on the 2000 machine but none of the others. I am also on an NT network if that makes any differenc. I also tried reinstalling fpw 2.6 incase it was a bad .exe file but I still get the error.

If anyone knows what might be causing this please help me.

Dave,
This is likely a Printer Driver problem (especially if it's an HP driver!).
1) Use the MS supplied Win2000 driver.
2) Check to see if the manufacture of the printer has updated drivers for Win2000.

Note: GPFs are rarely FoxPro's problem, as they are actually occuring in a system routine that FP is calling.
