Default excel print formatting issues

I have many report files which I issue on a regular basis, updating the data
from the previous quarter and saving it as a new file. I have spent
considerable time adjusting them so the print is as large as possible but
aesthetically fills the page. In the last couple (?) of months, these files
have been somehow reformatting to be compressed vertically while the
horizontal spacing is unchanged. The top and bottom margin went from 0.5" to
1.25". The only excel change I have made is an update to excel 2003 sp3
(not sure how long ago). To make this more confusing, a co-worker is using
the same files, with the same software version and not seeing this
phenomenon. I've compared settings and all seem to be exactly consistent.
Any suggestions for what to look at would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Sounds like this is a printer driver issue. Make sure both PCs use the same
printer and driver software
