Hi guys,  
I’m having problems printing a movie clip contained inside a movie clip. Everything works, except for the fact that it is not printing the MC, it is printing the whole movie (\_root), so the document turns out to be 17 pages long!

I’m using this code on the frame where the MC is:

print\_btn.onPress = function() {  
print(coupon, “bframe”);  
};

The frame where the MC is, is labeled #p. The MC has the instance name of ‘coupon’, and the button, ‘print\_btn’.

I’ve tried also with the code below with no success.

print\_btn.onPress = function() {  
print(this.coupon, “bframe”);  
};

What am I missing?:puzzled:

Thanks in advance!  
Fred.
