We have a word document with numerous tables. On one network computer the all of the tables overlap on top of each other. Many of the other computers on the network display the document with no issues. We have checked the printer settings and all seems okay. Changing the table overlap property to 'none' seems to work but this has to be done for each individual table, which blows chunks. I don't see this as a solution since the document displays perfectly fine as it is on many other computers. Does anyone have any suggestions where we might look to fix this issue?

Hi Joshua,

As a first step, I'd suggest reinstalling the printer drivers and, if that doesn't resolve the issue, repairing the Office installation on the affected PC.

macropad,

Thanks for the advice. I have since learned that this issue does not occur for all users on this particular computer. It only happens to some users, so I'm not sure it is a driver issue as much as a user setting. Regardless, I'll submit an IT request to reinstall the printer drivers to make sure that base is covered. Any thoughts as to why it would only affect some users?

It might affect some users if they're using a different printer and/or printer driver.
