Why does choosing Page Setup from a Figure window generate an error in MATLAB 7.0 (R14)?

If I create a figure and choose Page Setup from the File menu, I receive the following error in the Command Window:

 ??? cellfun works only on cells.

 Error in ==> pagesetupdlg>LocalGetSetupData at 1691

   toolong = find(cellfun('length',names) > 28);

 Error in ==> pagesetupdlg>LocalJavaSetupDlg at 1655

 [optKeys, optVals] = LocalGetSetupData( Fig );

 Error in ==> pagesetupdlg>LocalInitFig at 831

   if LocalJavaSetupDlg(Fig,Dlgname)

 Error in ==> pagesetupdlg at 38

Dlg = LocalInitFig(Action);

         pagesetupdlg(hfig)

This problem has been fixed in MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP1). If you are using a previous version, read the following:

We have verified that there is a bug in MATLAB 7.0 (R14) in the way that printer data is retrieved in Windows 2000.

To work around this issue, select Print Setup from the File menu in a Figure window before choosing Page Setup for the first time during a MATLAB session.
