Hello everyone,

I have an Epson printer that prints in color on pages up to 13"X19". I sometimes like to print drawings at 1:1 and the images then take up 2 pages.

When I do this only one of the 2 pages is correct. The other page has about 1/3 of what should be on the printed page missing. It is like the image for the second page was shifted towards the border between the pages by several inches.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Tim Olson

Hi Terry,

Does everything look correct when you turn on show page breaks?

Tim,

Yes, the printer setup window and showing page breaks and other things I have looked at show everything as expected. Only the actual second page printed is incorrect.

Since my drawing is symetric about the Y-axis, I printed the drawing twice and took 2 copies of the first page and used them to get the picture I needed by turning one of the first pages 180 degrees.

Thanks for reply,
Terry

I figured out my problem and it was operator error. I had one thing set up to use 13x19 paper but was putting 11x17 paper in the printer, thus the 2" gap.

Thanks for the help. I did point me in the right direction where I discovered my error.

Terry
