  1. Can't Print Asks me to save document


    When I go to print, it is asking me to save the file. If I save the file and then try to open it to print it asks me the save question: save the file. I have had this system set up for years with no printer problems this just started to occur. My printer is an HP Officejet 6830

  2. print asks me to save to documents

    hi, after installing windows 10 my epson rx 420 isnt being listed .in list of printers.

    it will scan from scanner to computer so i would think it must recognize the printer,

    but this is what happens when i got to print something it says says saved to documents, so i go to documents and there it is so i go print it then says file must be converted before opening.

    so i convert it , but just seems to send me round in a loop.

    why cant i just click print and it prints ?

    also tried my printer on another computer and it works.



    hope this makes sense

    also epson say windows supports the printer

    Unable to print Excel documents on Windows 10.

    Hello Gifford,



    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will assist you in resolving the issue.



    From the above description, I understand you are unable to print Excel documents on the computer running Windows 10.



    Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

    • Did you check if you are able to print other system documents or webpages using the printer?
    • Did you check if the printer is visible under Devices and Printers?


    You will be able to print documents and web pages from the Printer if the device is online or showing working status under
    Devices and Printers.



    If haven’t tried, I suggest you to check if you are able to print documents other than Excel documents or webpages using the printer.



    Also check if the printer is listed under Devices and Printers
    by following the steps below:



    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type Devices and Drivers and select the top most search result.
    • Under Printers, check if the printer you are trying to print from is listed.
    • If yes, print a test Excel document and check if the device works.


    Write to us with the status of the issue on the same post for further assistance. Your reply is important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



    Thank you.
