Chris, WP assumes that column zero on the printer is the just right of the left edge of the paper. Which means that the paper has to be placed in the printer so that the normal leftmost position of the printhead is right at the left edge of the paper. Basically what I am saying is, move the paper to the right place. Once the paper is set correctly then you will get 1" margins on both sides. It is possible the Finger Print is causing the printers left margin to be in a different place, but I doubt it. // \X/ Lynn

Lynn, The paper is set so the print head rests exactly at the left edge perforations. I physically cannot slide the paper guides any farther to the right. Is there a problem in the starting column? Maybe it is the Finger Print? I'll keep trying. Thanks, Chris A.

Chris, Try playing with your margin settings in WP to see what is required to get you margins to come out right. Try something like 5,69. // \X/ Lynn

Lynn, That's what I already started doing. I'm fairly certain that the Finger Print is inserting a 1/2 inch left margin even though it isn't supposed to until you select that option. I like the NLQ so I'll have to learn to compensate. I'll let you know how I make out. Chris A.
