I am trying to print 20 sets of a workbook containing 7 total sheets
containing charts. Regarding of which printer I select, all HP but different
models, or which workstation I use, with each subsequent set, the two cells
across the bottom of each page become progressively squished on top of each
other making it impossible to read.

This is not a print driver issue but an Excel issue. All printers have
updated drivers. The "squishing" occurs even in print preview. Everytime
you make a change, like increase or decrease the margin, it squishes the two
cells together by increments with each change.

Kim2900,
Have you varified your page breaks?
Select "View", "Page Break Preview".
Click the "OK" button.
Then drag and drop, page break lines where you need them.

Thank you for your response, FloMM2. Unfortuntately, page breaks aren't an
issue in this case. Each chart is on a separate sheet in Excel. The page
margins are set to allow enough room for the charts. What befuddles me is
that the cells actually adjust themselves, squishing on top on one another.
I know this is hard to understand but as the printer prints the first
workbook set, the cells slightly overlap, one on top of the other. The next
workbook set, the cells overlap more, etc. By the 10th set, the cells are
completely overlapped, one number on top of the other. And this is the case
no matter which printer I use or whomever's workstation I try.
