printing out handouts from powerpoint

[JimmyG]

When I print out handouts from powerpoint 2003 (using the option from my HP
Laserjet 1300 printer) I use the option to print 2 hadouts per page, but the
image that is printed in relation to the A4 paper I am using is quite small.
What I want to do is print 2 slide per page but increase the size . Does
anyone know how to do this.

Many thanks

Unfortunately, we can't change the handout layouts in PPT.

What driver options does your 1300 have?

I have a 1320 that I use from a Windows PC; there, the driver lets me choose to
print multiple pages up on each sheet of paper. If yours does to, that'll
solve your problem.

Print slides instead of handouts and have your printer driver print two pages
per sheet.

Thanks very much for the reply. I have also spoken to HP and they have also
suggested changing the print driver and told me to try PCL5E or PCL 6. So
hopefully that will work. Many thanks.
This is the 1st time I have used this forum and I cannot see how to leave
positive feedback for your corresepondence. Where is the link for me to do
this, if you kinow please would you pass it on.
Bye
