I've reinstalled NICs printer drivers and RAM. What I have is a very old PC. It's a Pentium-S 120 with 64 Megs of RAM running PCL5 on the LJ 5. When I print a report in Access, the text is not formatted correctly. Some text will be way outside of the frame boxes of the report. Some of the dates will not print completly and some dat just will not print at all. I've tried it with LJ 5 driver, the PCL5 driver and the 4MP driver. Nothing has solved the problem. Any ideas?

The boxes might appear inside the page margin on a print preview in Access, but sometimes it´s beyond the actual margins of the printer. Try and decrease the box width just a little and see if it changes anything. Also there are some betadrivers (PCL5) that deals with margin issues (Word) out on HP´s betadriver page. Those might be intended for other printers and applications, but might work fine with yours. You can find the betadrivers here :
