Formatting Printout of Access Reports

I have a problem that a report that I built in an access database application prints differently on different printers. On some printers the report that fits on one page on my printer is too wide to fit on one page of another printer. The width of the report isn't changing (to my knowledge) as all of my fields have the can-grow property set to no. Is there a way to format the report to fit to page? Would setting the can-shrink option to yes help at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Jay
 
Hi

I would guess this is due to the fact that different printers have different 'printable' areas, not aware of anything you van do about it, except squeeze up your report Regards

Hi jfeegler!

Have you tried to use the PrtMIP and DEVMODE-Variables already?

Regards
