Default Problem with Printing Legal Size

I'm using Microsoft Excel 2007 - Microsoft Vista

I have changed the Page Size in Page Layout to 8 x 14 and it shows up that
way on Print Propertis. When I look at the document under Print Preview, the
typing gets chopped off at the 8 1/2 X 11 size and goes onto the next page.

If I adjust the Page Break, the printing font just goes smaller and it still
stays at 8 1/2 x 11.

I have an HP All-In-One 1210 - if that makes a difference.

Thanks, Elise

You made the change in Excel using Page Layout | Page Setup | Size and
selected 'legal' ?
Everything to do with paper sizes in Excel after that is governed by the
print driver.
I suggest you reinstall the printer; maybe get an updated driver from
www.hp.com
Does it work with legal in Word?
best wishes

First, is the printer with the 8x14 paper the default printer? No? Set
it to that. Is the 8x14 paper default selection? try that.
