Does anybody know a command to put into the HP PCL driver section of
WIN.INI that would force the printer to European A4 paper size. Excel
3.0 seems to insist on printing on "letter" size, and I have to press
"Continue" on the printer for each page, to get rid of the LOAD
LETTER display.

I know that similar commands exist, e.g. PRTRESFAC=0 forces PCL
printers to 300 dpi, which is very useful for Excel 3.0 - DeskJet
problems.
