Default Plot area not printing correctly

I have a worksheet with several charts on it. The charts look fine on my
screen. When I "Print Preview" the page, some of the plot areas on the sheet
are shrinking. The chart area appears to be the correct size, but the plot
area is shrinking to the top of the chart area, followed by white space, and
the legend at the bottom of the chart area.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi,

Two things will help get you an answer -
1. What version of Excel are you using?
2. Does the change occure when you print or only when you preview?

Shane,

Thanks for the tips.

I'm using Excel 2002, and it happens both with Print Preview and Printing.
Occasionally, the Print Preview looks ok but the actual print out is still
messed up.

Hi,

I know this answer is going to be less than satisfactory. But if you print
on a different printer or have someone else print on a different printer does
the problem still exist. The reason I ask is because this is often a printer
drive issue, on my machines I can't reproduce this problem.

If nobody else responds with a useful answer, try posting you question a
second time.
