Can you control printing margins in Outlook Express?

[Brad]

I printed a few received emails from Outlook Express
yesterday and noticed that
the printout is missing the first 2 columns of characters
on the left side of the paper. Its as if the text was
moved past the left margin (or printable space of the
document). I can't find anything in the help file that
tells me how to adjust margins or borders. I tried
resetting my HP7130 All-in-one printer back to the factory
settings and it didn't fix the problem. As far as I can
tell, I have not problems printing anything in other
applications. Help!

Brad - I had exactly the same problem and was about to
post a query, then found an earlier one where someone
(Kevin) suggested a fix. I tried this and it did the
trick straightaway. Go into Internet Explorer, File, Page
Setup, and there'll be some fields for your margin
values. The default for the left margin is probably very
low, just increase that to whatever you think will cure
the problem, close, go back and print a message and there
you go! Now I can punch holes for filing the printout,
without hitting the text.
