printing

[Jeff S. <js...@en...>]

Hello all,

I'm having some problems printing. When the files are sent to the printer,
there's a good 6-7 inches of white space at the top of the page before any
content appears. This seems to be happening with all the templates. I'm
printing to an HP LaserJet 4050N.

Thanks,

Jeff
