Im trying to print Laser address labels from my ASP Database. Getting the data and everything is cool..

The problem is setting the printer page margins.

What I need to know is how can I in ASP/VBScript set Explorers Page Setup, Margin Width properties. If I can set the margin, I can fit my labels on the page.

I don't want the end user to have to keep changing the margin setting back and forth depending on what there printing on the server.

I need a sort of...

Printer.Page.MarginWidth = 0

Any Ideas?

Cheers

Glyn

 
asp is server-side, so you cannot unless you find or make some COM component to get access to network printers.

use CSS client-side to control printing, but you still have to manually configure the IE header/footer and margins at least once.
