NPrinting Pixel Perfect Report – cannot add objects?

I'm able to create other types of reports (Excel, Word) with NPrinting 17.2 Designer, but not Pixel Perfect Reports.
When I create a new Pixel Perfect report from NPrinting 17.2 Designer, edit the template, and try to add an object (i.e. a Table), I get the following error message:
QlikView NPrinting can’t find a supported reporting output producer for the file C:\Users\Bdunsmoor\AppData\Local\Temp\e9fa76be8094dc1bc26394a5efc740e\Tables

When I click the Cancel button, I get another error message:
Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to contine.

Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: source.

If I click “Continue”, the screen returns to the Template Editor, but I can’t add any objects.

Here's a screen shot:
