Word 2003 - When I send a document to the printer a dialogue box pops up,
and stays up, telling me the document is printing. How can I get rid of that
annoying dialogue box ?

Perhaps, but this issue just started. I've had the printer for a very long
time (HP LaserJet 4 Plus) and never had this dialogue box pop up when
printing.

Let me guess. It says something like "This document sucessfully printed."
