scale to page error in Excel 2007

somehow something has changed in my Excel 2007 setup where my "fit to scale"
does not work appropriately. When I choose print preview, the preview screen
changes to a very small preview and my document is a few thousand pages.
This document used to print fine on one page. Even on my other computer it
prints fine.
The funny thing is, when I change it back to 100% scale the preview is large
again but still cuts off a few columns.
I must have changed some setting that I need to reset but cannot find it.
Any help is appreciated.

Have you checked your setting of print area?

which settings specifically? When my print settings are 100%, it shows that
it will print on 4 pages. when I choose 1 page wide and 1 page long, the
scale changes to less that 100% but the size of the preview picture changes
to a small view. It doesn't squeeze the printout to fit.
This specific file used to work on this computer. I've either downloaded an
"update" or changed a setting somewhere. It is not limited to this file
either.

I don't know where the Print Area settings are in Excel 2007, but I think
from some of the 2003 to 2007 crib sheets that it's accessible via "Page
Layout" and "Page Setup".

Some hints on 2003 to 2007 command mapping:
