Printing in Landscape

[Sonia]

When you print the slide(s), your printer dialogue should allow you to set
landscape or portrait. I don't have an HP, but if the dialogue has a button
for "Layout" or "Preferences" or "Advanced" or something like that, explore
and poke around until you find the option to set it to Landscape. Let us
know whether that works.

We haven't been able to print to our hp 4050 laser in
landscape at all. Anything we try to print is shifted to a
portrait position and cuts off anything outside of that
area. We have gone through the printer setups and made
changes and it still continues to do so. Very frustrating,
ready to remove xp and go back to office 2000

My understanding is that this landscape/portrait thing is a known issue
with HP printers and Office XP. I keep hearing that HP is to release
updated printer drivers that will solve this, but I've not seen them
yet.
