I can't get printing to work in Windows 8 x64 when using Irfanview. I've tried two computers and a virtual machine. I've already written the author about this and he wrote me back:
Sorry, this is not a bug in IrfanView ... the print system is same
and it works in all Windows versions (and IrfanView versions) since Windows 95.

I don't believe that MS changed the print system just in Win8 to be
not compatible with older versions ;-)
=> the problem is something else ... probably a problem in the printer driver.

If some of you here use Irfanview could you try to print something from it? Its print dialog doesn't show up for me on Windows 8 x64. I'm using Irfanview 4.36.

Thanks

I've never used it before, but I downloaded it, and got it to work.
I had to reset it to choose load from cassette, as it seemed to ask it to feed from rear... but it does work, with 8.1 x64
