Cannot print from Publisher

I can no longer get publisher to print to any printer, including a physical printer (HPLaserJet) or to a file, i.e. a PDF.  It tries to connect for about 30 seconds and then once connected the print button remains greyed out.  All other MS Office programs work fine.  Any ideas?

    Same problem here.   I must save as a PDF then print the PDF.  I don't want to be doing this every time I need to print.

    I tried the: unchecking "Use XPS enhanced print path when available" under Publisher Options>Advanced>Print

    That didn't help.

    FIXED!!!

    It was the font.  I was using "Constantia" and switched to "Arial" and it is working fine now!!
