Can't print doc at 100%

[irene]

Can anyone explain why it is so difficult to get an excel
sheet to print at 100%. I have tried everything but can't
seem to hit on that one thing that explains why Excel is
behaving the way that it is. If I change the page break
it changes the scaled size to less than 100% if I try
printing 1 page wide by 1 page tall it also does not
print full scale. I have tried changing the column widths
nothing seems to make sense.

It actually is not difficult to have it print at 100%, Set print area and go.
Now if you want to manipulate page breaks and have it print at 100% that is most
likely an impossible task because as you manipulate the page breaks you are
manipulating the zoom/reduction % to enable it to fit the dimensions you are
asking it to fit.

I set the print area and it still manipulated the
zoom/reduction. Why?

I thought I was going insane at first. Because you're
right when resetting the page break then my document was
resized.
I can accept that it is simply an impossible task to have
it print at 100% and manipulating the page breaks. For a
moment there I thought it was something simply beyond my
understanding.
Thanks.
