Printouts do not fit page

[Guest]

I have a Canon iSeries portable printer and Windows XP on my laptop. When I
print a document on 8 1/2 x 11 paper, the document doesn't fit the page. The
document content appears on a 1/4 of the page instead of the full page like
in the upper left hand corner of the page.

The problem occurs in multiple applications and on every document I print. I
have tried reinstalling the printer several times. All the printing
preferences and page layout options look fine under printer properties.
Another person uses the same printer w/ the same driver with Windows XP, and
he doesn't have the same problem I do. Please advise.

Almost sounds like it is set to print 4 pages per sheet. try setting it
to 2 pages per sheet, apply and then set back to 1 and apply?

How do you check to see how many pages per sheet is set to print?

Could this be a setting on the printer's properties for all applications, or
would you have to set this for each individual document you print?

In the application in question, File, Print, look in the lower right
corner of the Dialog. Another possibility is your Printer Properties is
set to print photos? 4x6 photos perhaps?
