I do have problems printing emails from Outlook 2003. It should be printed as memo style, the problem is that Outlook is apparently ignoring the margins (left one) and is printing right to the edge sometimes even cutting half first letter. I have properly checked all printing settings in outlook as well as on printer side- nothing unusual- all margins set to 1.3cm format A4 etc.- usual stuff. Problem is occurring just in outlook, World and Excel are OK.
Any ideas?
Outlook express uses HTML settings for printing and i changed the left and right margins settings in regedit to 0.75 and it worked
This is how Microsoft Internet Explorer
accesses the printing settings:
For Page Margins, Microsoft Internet
Explorer first tries to get the values from this registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup If there is no such a key, Internet Explorer create
this key by copying the values from the following:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup If there is no such key, default values are
provided.
For the Header and Footer, the values are picked up from
the following:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup If there is no such key, default values are
provided.
The defaults are 0.75 for margins,
Not sure if you fixed this problem, but when I encountered it I fixed it by switching the email format from HTML to rich format. If the email is HTML formatted, outlook uses Internet Explorer's print settings. You can adjust the print settings in IE to effect the email formatting when you print, but I found it easier to just switch the mail format.
To solve the cutting off problem, go to page setup and adjust it into A4 or the paper size that you are using. and and about printing, try and select what you intend to print and select the selection menu from the printer's dialog. Good luck
SOURCE: I have the same problem as below. Can someone help out? Mike
Try copying and pasting to word. I have had this problem once or twice and this seemed to solve the problem. I still don't know why it happens.
