Recently, anytime I print out an Excel spreadsheet with gridlines, the text
entered starts overlapping the gridlines. I'm using Microsoft Excel 2002 and
printing to a networked printer (HP LaserJet 4Si) and yes I've tried deleting
the printer and re-adding it on my computer but even that didn't work. It
didn't use to do this until recently. I've had the same version of Excel and
also the same printer for years. Nobody else in my office seems to be having
this issue printing excel spreadsheets to the same printer using the same
version of Excel that I have. I haven't had much help searching for a
solution on the internet but any help would be appreciated.

I would try changing the font to a another true type font and see if this
fixes the problem. You could be using a non-true type font, or the font file
has gotten a bit wonky and gone south on you.
 
You could try installing a newer print driver or reverting to the one
supplied with windows or try turning off the "advanced printing
features" in Printing preferences "advanced" (Open the printer from the
start menu, settings, printers and faxes.)
 
I've tried both changing the font in the spreadsheet and reinstalling the
printer driver for that printer on our print server (we already had the
latest one to beign with) but neither option fixed the situation. Any other
ideas?
