Can not print on the curve printmaster 18 platinum using windows 7

Printmaster platinum 8.0 is rather an old 16bits software and it is not compatible to your new version Win 7 OS.

You can check software compatibility @ Windows 7 Compatibility Center

Your option is to upgrade to version 18 which is Win 7 compatible.

Hope it helps.

Broderbund PrintMaster Platinum 16 is not compatible with Win7(x86 or x64 bit)
Check -> Windows 7 Compatibility Center

You have to upgrade to a new version 18 to run on Win 7.

Installing PrintMaster 18 on any computer requires .NET Framework 1.1 to be installed on the hard drive. If NET Framework 1.1 is not installed, it will be installed from thePrintMaster 18 install disk before PrintMaster 18 is installed. If possible download .NET framework 1.1 If .NET Framework 1.1 is not already installed on the computer, the "Program Compatibility Assistant" in Windows 7 will display this message.To continue with the installation, select "Run Program".

Broderbund PrintMaster Gold Version 18 is not compatible with Win 7.
The Printmaster Platinum 18.1 is compatible.

If a program cannot be run under Windows 7 because of compatibility issues, which is the case with Broderbund Print Master Platinum Version 18, you have to right click on the executable file that will start the application and click Properties. Select Compatibility tab and check the Windows version you know the program worked with before. You can find more about this Compatibility issue on Microsoft website: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

Right click on the program shortcut click on properties from the menu and click on the compatibility tab , check "Run this program in compatibility mode of windows xx" and select the version of windows in which the program used to run. Apply the settings and open the program again. If the program still doesnt work try to reinstall or get an updated version for windows 7 maybe Print Master 2010.

Thank you for your question.

In this instance it is easier to direct you to a video on the "Microsoft" website regarding installing older programmes. This is much clearer than trying to explain in writing.
