"Under Tools | Options | Outgoing Mail | Message formatting, I unchecked
"Disable all text styling options (never send styled mail)" 

Mr. (?) Berkes is quite correct.  Indeed.  Who would have thought . . . 

"This is a bit unfortunate however because I do want to restrict
messages to plain text only, but it seems that you must have text
styling enabled to have printing work correctly." 

I'm with Mr. Berkes on that one, too.  

If this were documented in the help file, I wouldn't be grumbling as much.  Perhaps whoever drafts the help file could consider an edit, since some of us out here in the provinces do look there before posting.  

Thank you, Michael, for your followup.

Ever since the "Print an informational footer at the bottom of each page" option was added to Pegasus Mail a few years ago, I haven't been able to get it to work, under either W2K or XP, on different computers, or to any of a variety of printers, through whatever printer driver. 

My one success, so far, was in one of the earlier versions of 4.x, when printing across a network. 

Is this option one which actually is supposed to work, so that it's something on my end? I've repeatedly checked and unchecked the option enabling box, to no effect. 

The "Print a banner header" option always has worked, without temperamentality.

I changed one setting and the footers are now printing.  Under Tools |
