Error -116 on PrintPanel

I recently got the -116 error "Bad Print Driver" from the PrintPanel function.  I finally resolved the problem and thought it might be useful to others.  The problem was that the printer I was trying to print to was using the fully qaulified domain name.  When I switched to use WINS the problem went away.  I was wondering if anyone knew why this happened.  I have two ideas.  The first is that using the full name created a long string which was too long for the CVI function.  The second is that the string cannot have "." in it.

Thanks for any ideas.
