Re: Printing issue

I think I have solved it myself by using the Printer.zoom property.

We have a program that prints labels onto sheets. All works fine all but a couple of clients computers. However a couple of clients the actual labels that are printed are larger than the labels themselves and as each label prints down the page the problem of course get worst. The problem is both across the page and down the page.
I never wrote the original program and VB is not my first language. The orginal developer wrote into the program to adjust the left and top margin which works fine but it moves the whole image - doesnt scale it.

My two questions are:
1. Does anyone know why the occassional printer (or computer) would print larger than on the majority.
2. Is there any easy way to scale what is actually being printed

My idea at the moment is to include a right and bottom margin setting and from this calculate a scale then multiply all printing positions by this amount - this would be quite a huge undertaking.

Thanks for any ideas
