Unable to print recipes

L

I always get a blank page when I try to print out a recipe.  Print Preview shows a blank page too.  The recipe displays just fine on the screen in the two modes, so I cannot determine what is up.
Thanks.

Bob,
  BeerSmith uses a Microsoft Explorer control for printing.  I recommend taking a look at your Microsoft Explorer printer settings to see if there is a problem there.  Open Explorer and go to the File menu to check the print setup and try printing a web page from explorer.  Once you have this working, open BeerSmith and try it from there.

Cheers!

I have been able to print in the past.  If I click the recipes folder and get a general overview of the recipes, I can print those.  However, when I select an individual recipe, the page just shoes a temporary file on the bottom and the date; the rest of the page is blank.  Every other printing function in the program seems to work.  I think my recipe template may be messed up; is there somewhere I can download the regular recipe template?
 
Bob,
  You can download and reinstall BeerSmith (be sure to use the setup.exe program and install it from a temporary directory).  This should restore any templates if they were deleted or altered by accident.

  As always, it is a good idea to back up your recipes first.

Cheers!
