Details

Build ID: 2001122803 comm Steps to Reproduce: (1) Open the Print dialog (File | Print...) (2) Choose Fax as the name of the printer (3) Press OK (4) Cancel the "Send Fax" Windows wizard that appears Result: An alert, "Printing failed for some reason." This is pointless. The user knows the reason, he explicitly canceled, so there's no need for an error dialog.
But printing doesn't know why. This error code is generated down in the depths of printing and could happen for various reasons. It can't be easily removed for some reasons and not others.
