Outlook 2003 printing outside margins

Lionell Jansen via Office · External Since: Mar 30, 2005 Posts: 3

Hello,

I have the following problem with one of my users, pc is running on W2K
with SP4, Office 2003 + SP1. When the user receives an e-mail and prints
it, it prints outside the print margin both on the left and on the right
side. The user is a power user on the computer. The strange thing is that
when she forwards the e-mail to herself, then she can print it off without
any problems.

Does anybody have any idea on how to solve this problem? I tried just about
everything, but until now I have been unable to come up with a permanent
solution.

thanks & regards
Lionell

It's only html message or messages that were sent from a lotus notes
client... W2K SP4 is installed, I reinstalled Office 2003 and reset all
defaults, installed Office 2003 SP1 and the problem keeps persisting. If
they forward the e-mail to someone else, then it can be printed, haven't
tried it either to forward it to themselves... Even Microsoft can't give me
a straight answer...

Just had a call from user, if the message is forwarded to themselves, it
prints... but that's not a solution.

Greetings. I don't know if any of you have found a fix for this yet,
but I found something that has worked. When I printed e-mails in
Outlook 2003, which I have set to do all e-mails as HTML, it would cut
the left edge. I also have the same problem printing off website pages
in Internet Explorer. I found that someone else had this same type of
problem and they found that Internet Explorer is the culprit. I am
talking about Outlook 2003, not Outlook Express which has a lot of ties
to Internet Explorer. My Page Setup for Memo Style was set to .5 for
top, bottom, left, and right margins. However, in Internet Explorer,
the left margin was set to .25, and that was the margin getting cut. I
reset my Internet Explorer's Page Setup to have all margins at .5 as
well, and both IE and Outlook are printing off just fine. I hope this
helps you all out. Have a wonderful day!

You Sir are a star!
Thank you so much for taking the time to offer this information. This
has been driving us MAD! Outlook - problems printing HTML messages.
Your fix worked.
Please give yourself a pat on the back for making our day

Thank you for that answer. It would have been a long time (or maybe never)
before I would have thought to check Explorer for Outlook printing margin
problems but your solution worked and was easy!! Thanks again.

HI,
Kindly tell me what is the correct margin should be in the internet explorer because whenever I go to the email and check the page setup I can find the left and right margin are going to Zeros even though after modifying the internet explorer page setup
