In the app I have a routine that prints a few cards per page then issues a "Print Break" command that has worked fine for years in LC 6 but in LC 9 I'm getting an execution error on it (print: card or stack must be open to print it). If I take the command out everything prints fine with no errors, though without page breaks where I need them.

Nothing as far as I can tell. In LC 9.0.0 under Windows 8.1, I created
small stack with 2 cards each with a colored graphic on them (1 red and
1 blue) and added thefollowing stack script:

*command*doPrint

*open*printingwithdialog

*print*cd1

*print**break**-- with this commented out, both print on 1 page*

*print*cd2

*close*printing

*end*doPrint

With print break commented out, both cards print on 1 page. With it in
place, I get 2 pages of output. So for my test at least, print break
appears to be working as advertised. (again under LC900 Win 8.1)
