Apparently the Office SP1 service pack is causing office to lose the
OneNote printer, but there doesn't seem to be a fix for it yet, and
you can't uninstall/remove SP1 once it has been installed?
Not sure what the deal is, but thought I'd share what I've
discovered. Very upset... favorite function of OneNote and now its
gone!
