I have created several mailing labels using SQL Reporting services and am
attempting to print them with a Intermec pd-41 label printer. Every time a
report is Printed the size settings for the job changes to 1.5w 4h instead of
the setting within Windosw of 1.5h 4w. I have changed and saved the settings
on the printer in the printer settings via Windows. The end users for this
product cannot be bothered to click properties every time they are printing a
label. Has anybody else experienced this or know of a way to correct this.

Within Visual Studio, look at the report properties with respect to
page size - you will need to ensure that the Page property settings
are correct to give you the effect that you want - I have had to
experiment when using dedicated label printers to get what I wanted:

These two might have transposed values:
PageHeight
PageWidth

InteractiveHeight - should be same as PageHeight
InteractiveWidth - should be same as PageWidth

LeftMargin
RightMrgin
TopMargin
BottomMargin

Columns
ColumnSpacing

ALSO - I have found that you need to DEPLOY the report to be sure of
the end results - previewing and printing in Visual Studio sometimes
is not the same thing, especially if you are doing very fine spacing
and/or special fonts. (although this has gotten better in 2005 and
2008)
