Hi John,

Thankyou for your reply. However my problem remains. I had an earlier version of quickbooks. Acounts Easy Start 2013 seems to be trying to use the earlier versions pdf converter and the V4 is invisible in printer setup.

Hi Evan,

In that case, delete all QuickBooks PDF Converters you have and installed and then reinstall the PDF converter for the current version.

Delete all QuickBooks PDF converters in Devices and Printers

Delete the QuickBooks printer drivers QBPRINT.QBP and wpr.ini at C:\Program Data\Intuit\QuickBooks 2013\ and at C:\Users\All Users\Intuit\ReckonAccounts 2013\

Reinstall the PDF Converter by clicking on install.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\Intuit\ReckonAccounts 2013

Set the QuickBooks V4 PDF Converter to its separate port - see: https://community.reckon.com.au/reckon/topics/a9l45bkc1h76t.

Reboot your computer.

HI John,

I have the same problem with my Reckon Enterprise 2015. I've uninstalled the mentioned files above and then run the install from the Reckon Account 2015 folder since I thought it would the same as it was for 2013.

It runs file and says "printer setup succeeded". Unfortunately looking at the log of the install.exe it's not mentioning "reckon V4 pdf " at all. This is the converter that used to work for us till recently but I can't seem to reinstall that printer again. It only installs a printer called "amyuni document converter" and that one is not activated unless paying for it.

How can I reinstall the original pdf converter that comes with Reckon Accounts Enterprise?

Thanks,

Stevie

Hi Evan and Steve,

Sorry to hear that you are struggling with reinstalling Reckon V4 PDF Converter.

Evan and Steve, basically above instructions will guide you through the overall process involved with printing, pdf and emailing issues.

If your question is particularly about finding the way to install V4 PDF Converter, its by clicking on Install.exe which you would find the file from the Reckon installation directory. Steve, you are correct that upon running that installation, it installs Amyuni Converter but all you have to do is simply rename the Converter name to Reckon V4 PDF Converter( Printers and Devices> Right click on Amyuni Converter > printer Properties)

Also Evan, I am not to sure if your issue has been resolved yet or not, but for you both, if the problem persist, please consider following the KB once again from the link below,
