If the orientation in the printer's property sheet is set to Landscape, and you send a report in Landscape to it, the printer prints in Portrait. However, if the printer is set to Portrait, and you send a report in either Portrait or Landscape, it prints correctly.

I think you are right, it is a Xerox printer and the driver setup is a little hokey. I didn't have this problem with the old driver on Windows 95. I may try switching back to the old driver. Could it be something with Windows ME?
