Default Margins - Even when I set to "0" I get white space at the edges

I set the margins "0" but I am still getting 0.17 of white space on either
side of the page. I am trying to have a colored border on the top and bottom
go to the edge but the white space is not going away.

Thanks for your help,
Taylor

most laser printers cannot print all the way to the edge

True but I should be able to PDF without margins.

Just what are you trying to do in Excel? Most printers, not just laser,
won't print the entire width of a page. And just why do you need a PDF
with borders to the edge of the paper anyway?

If you are insistent on getting such a printout, have a pair of scissors
handy and trim off the blank parts... <g
