When installed Platinum is configured to print it’s output to the default windows printer. Older copies of platinum may need to be reconfigured.
Printing to the default windows printer is done by using a "Print Device" of 'WIN:!'.

- Press <Shift+F10> to enter the amendments program.
- From here select the print parameters record you want to edit, select it and move the cursor to the "Print Device", enter 'WIN:!' for the default windows printer.
