Default Paper Size
On a Windows XP computer I have problems with non
printable areas at the top and bottom of printouts to an HP Laserjet 4 plus using Micrsoft Word 97. I have set the default paper sizes to A4 in the Control Panel, Printers area and the default paper size in Word is A4 but in Word when I go to File, Print and check the properties of the HP printer I go back to Letter size paper at the start of a new session. I do not have a problem with the printing on the computers running Windows 98 but this is causing a large non printable area at the top and bottom of the pages printed on the Windows XP machine. Can anyone help? Thanks .. |

Default Paper Size
Hi John
There are two places you need to set the page size for the printer - I think you can get to both 'printer preferences' and 'printer defaults' from Properties on the printer. You then need to navigate to what appears to be the same 'Advanced' dialog each time, but you'll find it can take different settings. -- Margaret Aldis - Microsoft Word MVP Syntagma partnership site: http://www.syntagma.co.uk Word MVP FAQ site: http://www.word.mvps.org "JohnF" wrote in message ...
