Curious Printing problem

Computerguy - 09 Aug 2006 18:33 GMT
I am running Office 2000 on Win2k. Yesterday I noticed a very strange
problem. I have a workbook with 9 similar worksheets and one unique
worksheet. I made minor edits to the unique worksheet, consisting of
formating certain rows to have strikethroughs and to modify the formula in
another cell.

When I printed the worksheet (in landscape mode) it was displayed in the
upper left corner of the paper at 1/10th the normal size! This same sheet has
printed fine for years. At the time, when I print previewed the equivalent
worksheet in other similar workbooks they were OK. So I rebooted my PC and
now all the similar worksheets print this way.

I have tried changing the "Fit to x pages wide and y pages tall" but it
doesn't make any difference. Printing at "100%" does change the print preview
display but only slightly. it is still miniscule. Any help would be
appreciated.

TIA

Computerguy,

Try reselecting the print area for the worksheets in question and see if
this corrects the problem.

I've just begun to have the exact same problem as Computerguy!  I'
running Excel on my Mac G5, which runs OSX 10.4.7.  As far as I know
the problem didn't exist until I updated to Excel (Office 2004) 11.2.5
My printer is an older Epson 880.  I've been trying to print the pag
so it fills an 8.5x11 sheet the way it used to in Landscape.  I
absolutely refuses to cooperate.  Help

Update your printer's driver.

In most case this is *the* solution...
