uncledewey Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 When printing a 5"X8.5" document the printing is done as though I have a 8.5"X11" doucument in the printer. The printing is okay when printing from my e-mail and browser programs. I can't see any option or anything else that I could change in S Word. It does it on several documents of the same size so it must be something basic in MS Word. Any ideas???? Thanks a bunch, Uncle Dewey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponch Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Is it OK on the Print Preview ? What's the version of MS Word ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncledewey Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 It looks okay in preview. I'm not sure where to look to see what version I have, but am quite certain it was MS Office 2007 as I bought it in mid to late 7007. I did bring up a blank page and set it for 5"X8.5" and then entered data across the entire document and it printed just fine. Also, I recently changed printers and it uses PCL5 language while the previous printer was PCL6, but I thought it worked okay since then, but......Thanks a bunch for your interest.

uncledewey Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 I have selected the 5.5"X8.5" document in MS Word. When I print to that size document it is printing off to the side so only the characters that are in the middle of the document print. I then put a letter size document in my printer and I get all of the characters that are in MS Word. It is as though MS Word thinks my printer's paper is inserted to the side as oppoed to the center.I have now reinstalled my printer driver, but it was to no avail. Once again, thanks for watching over me. Uncle Dewey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
