		2.	"Not a valid win32 application"
			Paradox 10 Runtime is a valid win32 application. See help above for downloading and trying again.

			This seems to happen more frequently with the Vista operating system. Try turning off your computer and printer and restarting. Contact me if the error continues.
		4.	"LCAPPPrint: Initialize Failed" or "Printer Interface Setup Error"
