I want to be able to print a page all the way to the edge
of the paper or at least 1/8" but I cannot get it to do
it. I used to be able to get powerpoint to when I used
Office 2000 but now that I have xp I can't do it. Any
ideas?

Did you get a new printer?

Generally, this is a function of the printer & the
application and not the operating system. Few printers
will print much closer than 1/4" from the edge of the
page. You might want to check the specs on your printer.

You can easily test this by using MS Word. Create a
square/rectangle with the drawing tools and place it in
the corner so that it goes outside the page border. Print
the document. If you place a block in each corner, you'll
get a good idea of your printers limitations. Use the
page layout view for best results.
