Hi!

I am going to assume that you are using an ImageWriter printer.  If you are,
this should work.  If you aren't, I'm not sure what is going on....  :-)

That being said, try this:

1)  From the File menu, choose Page Setup.

2)  Select 'Tall Adjusted' to put an 'x' in the box.

3)  Select 'Use As Default' if there isn't already an 'x' there.

4)  Click OK.

Let me know if this works for you, OK?
