Problem:
Printing on legal size paper does not work.  Everything is set
up correctly (I believe).  Cassette is letter size so manual feed
is being used. The pagesetup is being set for legal size and
in Word in print preview it looks exactly legal size with
a page full of legal text.  But, when printing, it only prints
a letter size amount of info and that is what comes out of the
printer.  It seems to believe that its job is now finished so
the rest of the page still is stuck in the printer and must be
pulled out manually.
The obvious solutions has been tried: replace all software with
new copies, viruses had been checked for (none), version numbers:
system 6.0.2, laserwriter 5.2, laserprep 5.2.
Another SE on the appletalk network has the same problem - so
this suggests (but doesn't proove) that it is a problem with the
printer.  
So HELP.  Any good ideas out there?  Thanks in advance.
