Default Change default print setup!

Hello! I use Excel 2003 and 99% of times I print something in Excel I use
the same print setup.

I would like to know if there's a way to change de default setup to the one
I use so I don't have to change everytime!

Anyone knows?!

Default

Configuração default do Excel:

Orientation: Portrait
Dimension: adjust to 100% of normal size
Margins
Superior and Inferior: 2.5
Left and Right: 2

The one I use and would like to set as default:

Orientação: Landscape
Dimension: adjust to 1 page of width and 1 page of height
Margins
Superior e Inferior: 0.5
Left and Right: 0.5
Centralize to page: horizontal

Thanks!

Default Change default print setup!

You can record a macro doing a print setup and run that before printing.

Or you can change the Excel default New Workbook.

Open a new workbook. Customize as you wish including your print
settings.........group the sheets before setup so's all sheets get same
setup.

FileSave As Type: scroll down to Excel Template(*.XLT) and select. Name
your workbook "BOOK"(no quotes). Excel will add the .XLT to save as
BOOK.XLT.

Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART

This will be the default workbook for FileNew or the Toolbar button
FileNew or CTRL + n

WARNING................Do not use FileNew...Blank Workbook or you will get
the Excel default workbook.

NOTE: Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings.

You can also open a new workbook and delete all but one sheet. Customize as
you wish then save this as SHEET.XLT in XLSTART folder also. It now becomes
the default InsertSheet.

More can be found on this in Help under "templates"(no quotes).
