XPS Viewer EP

Previously, I have used PrimoPDF 4.0.25 to print web pages from Mozilla Firefox 3 to pdf files instead of printing directly to a printer to cut down on paper and toner usage. It works well on Windows XP SP3.

On another computer running Windows Vista, I have also installed the same version of PrimoPDF since it is supported on Vista. But printing from Internet Explorer 7 resulted in an exception error. In the end, I tried Microsoft XPS Document Writer to create the XPS file from the web pages. It worked but you need to download the XPS viewer to read the XPS file. This is similar to Adobe Acrobat reader.
