I have a report/subreport designed in AC2, which prints on my pin printer without a problem.
In Ac2, I'm able to set my print setup margins to 0" (top, bottom, right, left)
When I take this same report in Ac2k, I seem unable to make it conform to Ac2k requirements.
Although the margins are set to 0" i n my options-General window, I can't seem to be able to set the print margins to 0" in my print setup dialogue, as in Ac2, and even if I resize the report so that paper size + margins is within the size of my paper, I'm getting multiple blank pages printing in addition to the single form I want.

Anyone have any suggestions as to what I might do to correct this problem?
TIA, Richard

There is probably a problem with your printer. It is unable to take the margin all the way to zero.
Try using .25 and make the fonts in the report smaller if necessry.

It's an Epson LQ570e (quite new), and it settles for zero margins when I run my app (same app, same report) from Ac2. It's just not doing it from Ac2k.
Also, I'm getting the same problem with the margins on my inkjet printer, which also functions fine in Ac2

I've tried to set the margins as low as they will accept---some as low as .16, but others not lower than ~ .46. The worst roblem is for the entries at the bottom of my report. Haven't made the fonts smaller, but the main problem is that I'm using the 'report' to fill out fields on a pre-printed form, so I've tried 'moving' the text boxes, but this didn't solve the issue.
