Reports printing skewed after Windows 98 to XP conversion

We've just upgraded several computers from Windows 98 to XP.

We are using Office 97 on the old clients as well as the new (we now have a
smattering of Windows XP and Windows 98 boxes throughout the organization).
However, on the new client setups, all of the reports are cutting off
columns and such when you view or print them. When you view the same report
on a Windows 98 box, everything looks great.

I was thinking that it had to be something related to the Access Options
setup for each individual client, so I duplicated the setup from one of the
Windows 98 boxes that is working correctly with no success.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be causing this problem.
Any help would be much appreciated.

My guess is it is the printer driver or default settings for the
printer. I suggest you try installing or re-installing the printer driver
supplied by or downloaded from (download should be the most recent) printer
driver from the manufacturer of the printer.
