Hi, I'm setting the top and bottom margins in Word for windows 2 to 3.0 cm. The problem is when I print the top margin comes out 4.1 cm and the bottom is only 2.5 cm! My set up is: Windows 3.1 (installed over the top of 3.0) Word for Windows 2.0 Epson LQ-550 24 pin printer ( using LQ-850 driver ) A4 size paper set to tractor feed. True type fonts. Windows 3.0 or 3.1 did not have a driver for a LQ-550, but the printer manual said to use a LQ-850 driver. I've tried to update the driver (LQ-850) from windows 3.1 but it is not supplied any more. Should I be using a different driver? There is no problem with the page length, the margins just come out wrong. I can't remember having this problem when I was running Word for windows 2 with Windows 3.0. This is driving me crazy, any help or advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Stephen -------------------------<dlab_macmill@winkle.bhpese.oz.au>--------------------- | Stephen Macmillan | | | BHP Information Technology | "The human race is still in | | Newcastle, Australia | beta test" | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
