Problem: When I print an email from Windows Mail (Vista) or Outlook Express the letters along the left margin get cut off.

Cause: The margin settings for Windows Mail and Outlook Express are inherited from Internet Explorer.

Solution: To adjust or set the margins try this.

  1. Open Internet Explorer (IE)
  2. If using IE version 7 press the ALT key to show the menu (skip this step if using IE6)
  3. Click File / Page Setup
  4. Adjust the margins as you require
  5. Click OK

Now go back to Windows Mail or Outlook Express and try your print job again.
