Default Error message "Margins do not fit page size" in Excel?

In Excel 2007 I sometimes get an error message when setting up my page layout
that "Margins do not fit the page size." I have the same basic data on
multiple worksheets and it will print fine on one sheet, but another gives me
this error message. Why does this keep happening, and what do I need to do
to resolve it?

Thanks!

There should be a FIX option/button.

You can also change your margins...

If it's printed ok before now, I shouldn't need to change the margins to fix
the problem.

If both had exactly the same data then why would you need two different
sheets? :-)

There might be something which might be different which is causing this...

I have had the same problem and have not been able to find out what causes it. But, if you have more than one printer available, try changing to a different printer (or perhaps just a different printer driver), then access your Page Setup. I find that everything works fine and I can then change back to the original printer and things continue to work fine.
