After migrating from my old mac to a new iMac running Snow Leopard I cannot print Word or Excel documents properly with Office X for Mac. Just the header of the document prints. I have installed Rosetta. Everything else prints OK, even from Apple Works which is not supported by Snow Leopard. Any help gratefully received.

Let's be realistic. Office X (Office 10) is three versions behind the current version of MS Office for the Mac (2011) and is no longer supported by Microsoft.

I don't know why you can't print; possibly you need to update your printer driver for Snow Leopard. However, I strongly recommend updating Office X to at least Office 2008 (which is still supported by MS) or download and install one of the free Office suites instead.

I intend to upgrade to the newest version soon but I was curious if anyone else has had similar problems and if there was a fix out there. My printer drivers are up to date as everything else prints fine. Perhaps someone else will be more helpful!
