I'm having problems with printing in 2009. After a successful migration, the existing .pc3 files for a couple of my printers don't work. I get an error that says; "This layout was configured for the default windows system printer but there are no system printers configured on this computer. To add a printer........The None device has been substituted."

This doesn't really make any sense to me. My 2008 is still running and printing fine. I checked my paths. Is something new with 2009 that I'm missing.

it sounds like it cant find the correct pmp files for the printer. I was getting the same error, but after I added the correct paths, the error went away.
