That is a problem I had when creating documents at home and then taking them to work. I was tld that the print areas of the Imagewriter and the LaserPrinter and for that matter the LQ Imagewriter are all different. If you formatted your document to fit within the page (printable area) for the IW and then tried it on a LW they are different. Try formatting your document with the printer device of LaserWriter chosen on you home computer, even if you do not have a LW. Hopefully this will solve your problems, it solved mine. Brian
