Legacy KB ID: 4933

Question

Why can’t I print my letter?  I keep getting the errors:

Server busy

The action cannot be completed because the other program is busy.  Choose ‘Switch To’ to activate the busy program and correct the problem.

When I click on Switch to I get another error:

The document ‘name.doc’ caused a serious error the last time it was opened.  Would you like to continue opening it?

How can I print my letter?
