## SUMMARY

It is not possible to print from the Control Room (adult mode). When you choose Printing Options from the File menu and then choose the Print button, the program does not really print. This procedure just sets your printing options. To print, return to Creative Writer or Fine Artist and click on the Toaster.
This functionality is by design. You cannot print from the Control Room in the Windows version of Creative Writer and Fine Artist, either.

### Steps to Reproduce Situation

The document does not print. This procedure sets your printing options. To print, return to Creative Writer or Fine Artist and click on the Toaster.
