How to change the printer paper source for all worksheets in a wrk
So here is my dilemna, I have a user who has an Excel workbook (Excel 2007)
which contains 14 worksheets. When he attempts to print this workbook, he implicitely tells the printer driver to use the Manual Paper Feed as the paper source for the entire workbook in his Dell MFP 3115cn printer, the printer he is connected to. However, two of the workbook's worksheets refuse to adhere to this setting (when you go to the page's setup for these worksheets, the printer's paper source, in the printing preferences section, is still listed as auto instead of MPF). This behavior occurs irrespective of the printer used, in other words, the same occurs when attempting to print to another printer. All worksheet pages are the same size (legal) and have the same layout (landscape). So my question is, is there a way to force all worksheets in this workbook to use the manual paper feed tray without having to change this setting manually on each of the offending worksheets? Apparently, this document will have a ton of revisions each week (roughly 10 to 20) and doing this manually is just not feasible for our chairman. Your assistance with this will be greatly appreciated! |

Then for this try have the user set the printer default preferences in
the printer dialog before he opens the workbook. Joe wrote: I tried that but it did not work. "Bob I" wrote: Do Select All Sheets first.

Can the settings be changed on those particular individual sheets? As in
they aren't protected or something? Joe wrote: Thanks, Bob I, but unbelievably, that does not work either.
