Thanks for joining the thread, @greenmtnit.

 

Allow me to share with you some insights about PDF printing in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

 

My peer Mark_R mentioned about the ongoing investigation for PDF printing in QBDT. Rest assured, our product engineers are still working on this one for a permanent fix. He also provided  steps to help resolve this issue by running the QuickBooks Tool Hub.

 

If you've already tried running the Tool Hub file and you still receive an error, please reboot your computer to ensure no apps are affecting the process. Then, rerun QuickBooks Tool Hub.

 

If the outcome is still the same, let's reset your temp folder permissions. To start with, let's check the folder permissions to the TEMP folder: Here's how:

 

  1. Press the Windows key + R to open the RUN command.
  2. Type %TEMP% and press Enter.
  3. Right-click an empty area of the temp folder, then choose Properties.
  4. Pick the Security tab then ensure all usernames and groups showing on the Security tab have Full Control.
  5. Once the permissions have been set to Full Control, save as a PDF again within QuickBooks.

Then, please follow the rest of the steps outlined in this article starting from Step 2 under resetting temp folder permissions. It highlights the steps on how to test if you're able to print and modify permissions for your XPS Document Writer :  What to do if you encounter PDF and print problems with QBDT?.

Once everything's fixed, you'll want to pull up reports to check the financial health of your business. Thus, feel free to personalized the info and formats for your reports. I've got a great resource that will guide you on how to achieve this in QuickBooks Desktop. How can I customize reports in QBDT?.
