MS Office Forum / Word / Printing and Fonts / August 2004Justified Margins do not match when printing
When using the "Justified" setting in word or excel to print, prints sent to black & white hewlett packard printers (but not the color ones) seem to print with .2" less margin on the left. Other documents do not seem to have this problem (pdfs, etc). It just appears to me that there is a problem between word and these black and white HP printer drivers (unsure which end the problem is on) that shifts the left margin over .2". A workaround is simply to select the whole document and shift the left margin .2" over manually, but this does not seem like a viable permanent solution to me. Does anyone know if this is a known issue? Usually means a problem with the printer settings, such as the printing thinking you're using Letter size, while Word/Excel are using A4, or vice versa. Go to Start > Settings > Printers. Right click the printer, select properties, and go through ALL the dialogs. HP have managed to created a printer setting jungle with some of their drivers, with the paper size in three separate locations. Acrobat has its own method for dealing with paper re-sizing -- in effect does the shifting automatically. > When using the "Justified" setting in word or excel to > print, prints sent to black & white hewlett packard [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > viable permanent solution to me.

We went through all of the settings already, both the page setup of the document and the printer settings and tray assignments set on the local machine and on the server's printer queue. All were set to letter and not A4. Manually moving the first indent over .2" seems to be the only way we can get it to print correctly. >-----Original Message----- >Usually means a problem with the printer settings, such as the printing [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >Acrobat has its own method for dealing with paper re-sizing -- in effect >does the shifting automatically. |
