Thanks - I've had more responses now. 

Various
1) have not upgraded to adobe 6 (and now do not intend to!)
2) have adobe 6 but no problems (only 1 respondent)
3) using adobe 6 and didn't realise they had a problem until my email!

We have done further testing here for a variety of combinations of
publishers and service providers:
1) blackwell and ingenta - cannot print
2) blackwell and swetswise - cannot print - as this redirects to ingenta
3) oup and ingenta - cannot print
4) oup and swetswise - cannot print - as this redirects to ingenta
5) sage and ingenta - cannot print
6) sage and swetswise - cannot print - as this redirects to ingenta
7) academic press and ingenta - cannot print

8) emerald and ingenta - ok
9) ALPSP and ingenta select - ok

All other combinations appear to be ok.

This is a huge problem to us. We need to attempt to inform our users
that they need to save the pdf and open adobe separately - not an easy
task! Alternatvely, change all our ingenta and swetswise/ingenta links
to another service provider if available/possible - another huge, and
not satisfactory, task. Our IT dept have offered to test full adobe
(instead of reader) in case this makes a difference.

Thanks
Sandra

Subject: Printing Ingenta articles - Adobe 6 and IE6 problem


I only received one response from another university on this - does that
mean that no others are using Adobe 6 or that you have all solved the
problem? Thanks Sandra

Subject: Printing Ingenta articles - Adobe 6 and IE6 problem


Is anyone else aware of problems printing articles on Ingenta when using
Adobe 6 and IE6? On selecting the Adobe print icon, the (Adobe) message
'The document could not be printed' appears.

I have just been informed by ingenta that this is a general problem and
has been happening for  a few months. They have informed the publishers.
We have only just noticed it here - presumably because the students have
just returned and most of our machines were upgraded in the summer.

Are you all aware? If so, what workarounds are you using? Opening Adobe
separately and then opening the article from there works ok but is
impractical here.

Thanks
Sandra
