Have you tried going to (IE) Tools - Internet Options - Security and
turning off Protected mode?

When trying to print from IE7 the printer icon shows in the task bar but it
shows 0 documents pending and nothing prints. It appears the file is not
being spooled to the printer. I can print in all Office programs but not in
IE7. By turning off the Protected Mode in IE7 I am able to print but that is
not a suitable solution.
If you search the web for IE7 print problems you will find that there are
many and quite a few recently. The common thread I see is people questioning
the source of the problem and trying to determine the fault seem to point to
a similar set of circumstances. One of the requirements to install AVG 8
Free on a Vista system is first installing Microsoft’s KB929547 hotfix for
windows filtering platform. I have recently updated AVG 7.5 to 8.0 on 2
separate machines and experienced the same IE7 printing problem with both.
Two of my friends also did the same with the same results. I have 2 more
machines with similar requirements and I am going to test IE7 after the
KB929547 install and before installing AVG 8 to see if the printing problem
is caused by the MS KB929547 update or the AVG 8 Free install.
You will notice that AVG 8 has a Link Scanner and invades IE7 by scanning
all of your links in a Google search to determine if they are harmful. The
little wheel turns after each link and provides a green star with a checkmark
if the link is thought to be OK. How cute! Turning off the Link Scanner in
AVG did not solve the printing problem. I was a fan of AVG 7.5 because it was
straight forward and did not interfere with other processes as the big guys
do. So if you turn off the protected mode in IE7 so you can print and then
eliminate the irritating bonk that happens when you open each page will AVG
give you adequate protection?

I had this exact same issue and it drove me nuts for about 2 days. I found I
could print to anything put a locally attached printer. I could print to the
XPS Document writer I have installed and I could print to my PDF creator
without issue. Once I got a PDF I could print that PDF all day without
issue, I just couldn't print from within IE7.
What I found was that my problems began after installing AVG Free 8.x
earlier in the week. I had been able to print the previous weekend, but was
unable to print after the installation. As others have noted I was able to
print with Protected Mode turned off, but not with it turned on. Once I
uninstalled AVG Free 8.x I could print again from IE7 without issue. If you
have AVG Free 8.x installed you might try the suggestion made by Tony Zamboni
and install the patch or just uninstall AVG Free 8.x and reinstall AVG Free
7.x
Good luck.

Hello All. I have narrowed down the problem and solution. The system
is my father's and I do not have exact cause
Problem: Vista Ultimate 32 will not print from IE7 with UAC on. All
other applications seem to print fine and IE7 will print with UAC off.
System specs. Dell Inspiron 530 with Intel Quad processors. 4 GB
memory, printer HP 8250.
I reloaded Vista last night and it was able to print fine. I then
started loading applications and patches. All was fine until we loaded
AVG Free and Norton Ghost 12 legal copy.
IE stopped printing with UAC on. I rolled back with Windows system
restore to just after initial Vista load and the system started printing
fine from IE7 and with UAC on. It was late and we did not test what was
the exact culprit but it looks like one of two items, AVG free or Norton
Ghost 7 on the Inspiron. I have have a Dell 820 with Dual Core with
Vista 32 and 2GB memory, AVG Free and Norton Ghost 12 and it is workiing
fine. I will try to test futher and let everyone know more details but
it will be a week or so. Steve
