problem with right margin when printing in landscape, leaves gap on page

when printing any image or report in landscape mode there seemingly is a bug in 8.5 and previous versions in that the left/top/bottom margins seemingly can be controlled to what you wish (until they go off the page)... though the right margin is not configurable when printing in landscape mode, as when printing there is a large gap on the right side where I had specified the image to extend unto (the right margin was set at .1 and at .25, yet no luck).  I've read previous postings on the support/discussion forums with the same issue..........but no fix!!!! 

 

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks

Hi jonathanupr,

 

Which Labview version are you working in?

Are you using the report generation toolkit? 

What are the margins that you're specifying to print your image? 

How big of a margin actually comes out? 

Are you sure this is not a problem with your printer? (you can easily check this by printing a page of text in landscape mode)

Mishkin,

 

Read my previous post and you will get the answers to all of your questions.  

 

The printer is not the problem...

jonathanupr,

 

This problem is a known issue, and has been reported to R&D, like the other thread says, under CAR ID 36926, but thank you for bringing it to our attention again. It has not been yet fixed as of version 8.6 of Labview. However, a possible workaround listed is to use HTML reports instead of standard.
