Vista & printing multiple files

**MV Blackie** · 30-03-2009

Hi,

Our manager here (who else) found that VISTA had (yet another) limitation compared to XP PRO.

On his XP system he opened a windows explorer window, selected all files (ctr-a) and selected prin.

Now in Vista this also works but it has a limit on 12 files .....

Anyone knows how to circumvent this issue ?

(registry tweak I assume)

Hey check this link out..( Solution: Opening 15+ files, or multiple file types, simultaneously in Vista ) It talks about opening multiple files but not printing multiple files. I would like to know if it works for the printing side. I'll let you decide because I don't have a Vista machine available.

Actualy you can print multiple documents on one paper but not in same manner as in win XP. If you select multiple files and press enter you will not be able to do that. But if you do select multiple files and pressing other button and selecting print you will get print window in which you select how many on one page as in XP and thats all a bit difference than in XP.. but it possible.
