But when I press the print button or choose File/Print Report, there is no default printer and I can't find anywhere to add one.  I've been in under GnuCash/ Preferences and there's nothing on the Printing tab except something about print date format, print block characters.

I found Print Preview, and I can see what would print out, but I can't, as the print button in Print Preview is grey.  Presumably because there's no printer!
