Excel and vista x64 - landscape printing?

littlewhitepill · 01-04-2008

Hi

Does anyone know why I can't print in landscape format using Excel 2007 and Vista x64. It's driving me crazy. I can change the settings in page layout and printer dialogue boxes but the print preview never changes from portrait and it won't print as landscape. Help?

I have the exact same problem and this really annoys me. I have been googling for couple hours and found many questions but no answers. Someone please help! Obviously this is a malfunction in the product and why wouldnt MS do somehting about this?

Hi

I have finally found a solution. You need to make sure that you are using the PS printer version of your printer in the 'printer name' box in the print dialogue box. If you use this rather than your printer without this suffix you can get excel to print landscape.

Hope this helps
