Many thanks to all who replied with suggestions. I checked printer settings, and both the windows default printer and the Protel printer were set the same (local Epson Stylus Photo 1290 on USB). I did try uninstalling the Stylus Photo that was the old default, but that made no difference.

I recall running into something like this. It's been quite a while ago so my memory of it is fuzzy, but i think it had something to do with a corrupted .rcs file. There should be a whole set of these, either in your root directory or the main Protel directory. Try moving all of them somewhere

: [PEDA] P99SE crash on opening schematic Andy, I have seen similar difficulties with schematics in days gone by if you lost your printer connection. I know that you say you can still print PCB outputs but did your printer(s) in some way change recently (or your schematics are set
