You need to go into the printer setup and do some adjustments. Maybe rotate 180(which is what I have to do) and maybe adjust the unprintable area. I always have to do this when I install a new printer, the defaults will not print correctly.

Hope I can describe this... The labels are 4" tall, 6" wide, but they come out of the printer sideways. To get my report to print we have to do an OPTION LANDSCAPE. This works perfectly, the label comes out "sideways" on the 6" wide label. However.... even though in the designer all the controls are placed up against the left margin, and all the margins in my report have 0, they start about 2" in on the printed label. We want to add more stuff to the label but can't because it's printing off the right side of the label. Is there a "left margin" setting in the printer itself? An IT guy installed it, I'm not onsite, so I'm just wondering what I can look at. Karen
