Default Postcards do not print the same as print preview

I am running Windows XP, Microsoft Office Publisher 2003, SP3.

I simply want to create a postcard mailer, a half page, to mail to
prospects. The problem I am having is I chose the page setup: Postcard, half
page letter, portrait layout. What is printing out is not what the print
preview shows. What the print preview shows is correct, I should get 2
postcards on one sheet, printed out vertically, one on the top and one below
it. So all I would have to do it cut the page in half and have 2 postcards.

The way it is coming out on my printer is one on top and one below it, but
it is printing out landscape and only printing on the left half of the page
and the other half of the page is blank. Is there a fix for this, I don’t
want to have to go to a commercial printer. Thanks!
