Large format prints cut short
 
I am trying to print a spreadsheet on a large format plotter. It is about
140" by 36", set to 130% of normal size, and I have set the print area to
encompas the entire thing (verifyed by the page break view). The print
preview screen only displays about 60" of the full spreadsheet, the rest is
just blank. However it doesn't boot the rest to another page unless the page
size is reduced, it just ignores it. Havent had any issues with this in the
past just this file, is there a margin or print function that may be doing
this?
(PS. also this happens on multiple plotters each with diffrent drivers so
it must be a software problem)
(PPS. this is not a file I created, it was made on excel 2002 and I am
working on 2003 if that helps)

in the printer properties, try lowering the quality or dpi setting
