Odd message on startup.

When I open Vensim I first get a small window titled "waiting for printer connection" with the message "please wait for printer connection or cancel" Eventually the window will close, and Vensim will start or I can also click cancel and Vensim will start.

I am using DSS version 10.1.3.

I don't think this should happen.

Mac or Windows?

I've never heard of anything like this happening before, and cannot think why it would.

Seems to be a common problem when I search Google. Have you changed a printer recently or updated anything?

This is Windows 11. Printer is same as last 5 years or so, and it is turned off. Same message appears if I double click a model file with Vensim already open.
