Getting a Browser Error when Printing Results
Dec 01, 2014
I have created a simple user interface (an html page with linked slices) to all of my Presenter files and accompanying PDFs. There is also one quizmaker file published for CD. The slice it is linked to is working (@ quiz.html) You can perform the quiz. You can ask it to print and it will open the dialog box where it ask you to type your name. THEN it will give you this message:
WARNING The print results feature on this slide has been disabled while viewing locally because your browser does not support it.
UGH!!
I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Flash for both PC and MAC... (I'm on a Mac running VMWare for my PC side). I've used both safari and Firefox and am getting the same results.
If I try taking the quiz straight from my Quizmaker folder on my hard drive everything is perfect. BUT if I click on the quiz from my interface, it uploads to a new browser window, take the quiz, click to print to results, type in any incoherent or coherent text, I get that error message above.
What to do, what to do?

Hi Trudy!
Are you accessing the content as you would expect your learners to?
Do you have a security setting on your browser that is not allowing you to print? Sounds like you are either viewing locally or the browser is blocking this functionality.
Well the interface and it resources and images (includes the quiz and presenter files and pdfs) are on our network drive. Dang it.. That might be the issue.. I'll test it out and get back to you. Thanks. I guess I was too close to the issue...
Sounds great Trudy, just let us know :)
Hello Leslie,
I burned everything to a DVD and it still will not print.
Any ideas?
You are still getting the error mentioned above? Are you accessing the content via the Launch_Quiz.exe?
On the PC it works it doesn't work on the Mac side.. But I will relink to that and re-burn a DVD and let you know what happens

No I have to link going to quiz.html.. Whenever I click on the Launch.Quiz.exe nothing happens on the Mac side and on the PC it downloads something but the download doesn’t work. And this is after relinking to the Launch
Hi Trudy!
Sorry to hear that none of the solutions here were able to assist you. Not sure if someone in the community can step in with some helpful advice.
We actually cannot support your custom interface to view our content though.
I am very new to Articulate Storyline 2 and have been tasked with creating a training module that will be delivered to a user population within our company to view...However, when I publish the story file to a SharePoint or shared folder for all to access, I get the same print error message. We have an LMS but since the user population is temporary, they cannot access it, apparently.
Do you have any advice on how to get our users access to print? Or advice on a different way to publish this? I'm at a loss...
Thanks!!
I do not... I had the same problem and it was never resolved.

Hi Mariah!
The error shared in this thread is specific to viewing the content locally vs the actual uploaded content.
Are you accessing the shared link/url to the course as your learner would to test this functionality?
Trudy - Sorry to hear that your issue was never resolved. You are welcome to reach out to our support engineers here to see if they have some additional advice to assist with your setup.

Yes--we cannot utilize an LMS for this user group and they do not have internet access, so we have it available currently for our approvers to view in a SharePoint site and the print option still does not work. This involves me zipping the published folder and uploading it and then those users watching the story.html file within. Again, I am very beginner, so I apologize if this is an "easy" one and I just can't figure it out!
Hi Mariah!
There are a few reasons why the print results feature may not work. This article describes each reason and how to solve it.
