Vista - HP Laserjet 1022 - won't do what I want in Vista

HP Laserjet 1022 - won't do what I want in Vista

Hello, I now have Vista Home Premium 64bit. My HP Laserjet 1022 prints just fine... BUT it won't let me position the image on the page the way I want it to. Sometimes I have a 16x22-inch image that I need to print full-size--what I've always done in the past (when I had Windows XP) is print it in four different sections. When I would start to print, it would automatically show me how the image was positioned on the page and I could move it around to get it in the right position to print one-quarter at a time. Now it does not give me that option.

Does anyone have any idea why not?

Thank you.

You are using a stripped down driver for Vista. HP may have a more fully
featured driver for download. Or, Hp/MS has elected to just provide a
stripped down driver, hoping that you will buy a new printer.

Thank you for your reply, Chuck. I actually discovered what was wrong, it was a setting in Photoshop!

But I will check the HP drivers, too, and see if I need to get the latest.

Thanks again.

It might have helped if you had identified the application you were using!
Many of the printer drivers have options to position output on a printed
page, and some of the stripped down versions do not have this option..
My assumption was that the problem was in the printer driver,not an
application, since you did not identify an application.
