Dimension Error: What does it mean???

[Mald MM5]

Thank you...

So there is noway I can make this to work in version 1.8?? At my institution
this is the version they have.

I tried version 2.0.a3 on my laptop and it works like a charm. But my
version on lap does not have printim. I remember it was not enabled. How can
I enable that during compilation. Any where I can refer to/

Thanks
