Photos don't print correctly

S

Using Publisher 2003, when I print a page with photos, each photo print as a
series of strips, where each strip is a distorted version of the photo. For
example, an embedded 4x6 photo prints as six contiguous 2/3" x 6" photos,
each a copy of the original but 1/6 as tall. I am printing the page using
8.5x11 borderless. Is there some setting that I have wrong or is there a bug
in Publisher?

Try printing the same image outside of Publisher and see if you still get the banding...if so it's a printer/memory/somethingelse problem.

I have no trouble printing photos on my printer and sometimes Publisher
prints even larger photos correctly. I don't see how it could be a printer
problem since the page is basicaly printed correctly but the included photos
are not. They occupy the correct space on the page but are mangled.

Also, when I convert the page to a web page it prints correctly. Hasn't
anyone seen this before. I must be a bug. I tried every setting I could
think of.

Have you updated your printer drivers? Normally this issue is caused by bad
printer drivers, updating to the latest drivers will normally sort the
issue.

And before you say, yes I know that the images print fine in your other
applications, but that doesn't mean that it's not a printer driver problem.
