RPM Print Fix Readme File

Updated March 21, 2002

If you are having problems printing from RPM ("Command Failed" error, "JET VBA F
ailed to Initialize" error
and "Unable to Initialize DAO/JET DB Engine" error), it could be that you are mi
ssing some
common files that are required by the Seagate Crystal Reports printing system us
ed by RPM.
IMPORTANT: The very first test you should do is make sure that you can print fro
m other programs! You can
try printing this ReadMe file right now. If it fails to print, you have to set
up your printer properly.
Please see your printer's documentation on how to do this.

Where to Find the PrintFix Files

level of your CD.

Following these steps will update any missing database drivers necessary for dis
playing and printing RPM data.
If you are still having printing issues please look at the note "Finishing Syste

if your computer has been correctly configured for printing.
I. Install the files mdac_typ.exe and jet40sp3_comp.exe:
1. Click to the disc directory Rpm2_2\PrintFix
2. Double-click and install 'mdac_typ.exe'.
