Program won't print: "Error Prop Res DLL Not Loaded"

Mine is a fully legitimate copy of InDesign, but this error message appears when I try to print to my printer. If I swat the message a dozen times, the printer then prints a blank page.

Try following the guide from the Microsoft Support page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918730. Just update the path environment variable to point to the folder where the printer drivers are installed, restart Indesign and test if it workes.
Here's the exact text from that page:
Let me fix it myself
To update the Path environment variable, follow these steps:
Click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.
Click the Advanced tab.
Click Environment Variables.
Under System variables, click the Path variable, and then click Edit.
Press END to move the pointer to the end of the path.
Type a semicolon (;), and then type the path of the printer driver file.
On a computer that is running a 32-bit version of Microsoft Windows, type the following default path: C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\W32X86\3
On a computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows, type the following default path: C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\X64\3
For example, after you update the Path variable on a computer that is running a 32-bit version of Windows,  the path would resemble the following: %SystemRoot%\System32;%systemroot%;C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\W32X86\3
Click OK to close the Edit System Variable dialog box.
Click OK to close the Environment Variables dialog box.
Click OK to close the System Properties dialog box.
If this doesn't work try method 1 in the guide.
Good luck.

    hi i get this message when i try to open an image in photoshop.. it says error: prop res dll not loaded
    does anyone have any idea what this means and how i can dodge it?

    well when i open photoshop and try to open an image thats what it does.. it gives me that exact error.. i try and close the box and basically photoshop freezes and i have to start task manager to end it..
    i searched dll on google and all i found was people with the same problems.. only there's were in microsoft office..
    it's a free copy someone gave me so i'm thinking maybe it has something to do with copyright crap? she also gave me dreamweaver and i have no problems with that so i'm not really inclined to think that is the problem..

  • After installing Firefox 4.0 when trying to print get "Prop Res Dll not loaded" error message. I have a Dell A960 printer.

    Installed Firefox 4.o now when I try to print and click on "properties" I get error message "Prop Res DLL not loaded". I have a Dell Printer A960. Never had this problem before so how do I fix this? I don't know that much about computers so please make it simple as I'm not that literate when it comes to complex computer fixes. thanks

    Here's a Firefox bug that was filed a few months ago. <br />
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=649128 <br />
    Looks like a problem caused by Lexmark print drivers doing a strange installation (Lexmark makes some of the Dell branded printers). Mozilla isn't going to revert the way Firefox looks for print drivers due to security concerns.

  • Firefox 4. crashes on Print request - "prop res DLL not loaded" - Why?

    Happens with every Print request to Lexmark 5100. Brother printer works OK.
    It doesn't matter which web site. It will always crash as above. If I request the property sheet for the printer, that is when the DLL not loaded box comes up.
    With prior 3. versions the printer works, and will work if I restart Ver 3. and then print (without re-booting the machine)

  • When using my printer I get an error "Prop Res DLL not loaded" message when I click on Properties in the print dialogue box.

    My printer is a Lexmark Z705.

    I just had the same problem w/ a Lexmark X1185. MicroSoft web site gave me this that worked:
    To work around this problem, use one of the following methods.
    Method 1: Copy the printer driver files to the System32 folder
    To copy the printer driver files to the System32 folder, follow these steps:
    In Windows Explorer, locate the following folder:
    drive:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\W32x86\3
    Press and hold CTRL, and then click each printer file.
    Note Each printer driver file has a file name that resembles the following:
    lx**prpb.dll
    lx**prpr.dll
    dl**prpb.dll
    dl**prpr.dll
    Note ** is a two-letter designation that is associated with the printer.
    With the printer driver files selected, right-click the files, and then click Copy.
    In Windows Explorer, locate the following folder:
    drive:\Windows\System32
    Right-click the System32 folder, and then click Paste.

  • Using Abode Reader 11.0.6 in Windows XP, I get an error message saying "Prop Res DLL not loaded"

    When using Abobe Reader 11.0.6 in Windows XP, I get an error message saying "Prop Res DLL not loaded" when I try to print anything.

    Wow, what an ordeal.  First tried running the cleaner, then
    re-installing 11.0.6 -- didn't work (and that was after several attempts
    at reinstalling the Lexmark printer drivers and associated utilities,
    which didn't help either).
    Then tried a system restore to last week, when the print was working OK.
    -- Didn't fix it.
    Then tried cleaning and restoring 11.0.6 -- didn't work.
    Then tried cleaning and restoring to version 10.  Now printing works
    fine and system seems back to normal.
    Apparently, 11.0.6, which was working fine for a while, didn't like some
    other system update, but version 10 is not bothered by that.
    Thanks for your continued help and interest -- without your link to find
    option for installing older versions, I'd still be stuck.
