Hopefully, there is an attached photo, IE6_Print_Preview2.jpg (at 640 x 480
resolution) that show precisely Internet Explorer's Print Preview with the
following options (most as radio buttons) displayed across the top of the
screen . . .


Do you have a better test example? The one you have chosen
is constructed from frames (somewhere at update.microsoft.com?)
So that might be affecting your results with it.

FWIW I don't have IE6 installed but a more relevant newsgroup
to discuss this in would be ie6.browser, where you might be
able to find people willing to try experimenting with Print Preview
on that version of IE for you. I guess they might also have
to be willing to change their display resolutions down to VGA mode
which might be even harder for you to find. ; )


Good luck

Then, the KEY illustration of my printing problem ALL of the text, graphics,
etc, on the web page are skewed fully to the LEFT 25% of the screen. In
other words, it looks like a column that is 25% of the width of the browser
window, with all information stacked vertically. - just like it prints.

I now know that this LEFT SHIFTING occurs with the "2 pages per sheet"
setting (or more), or for a single page copy. Regardless of the number of
"Multiple Pages per Sheet" option number and even if this option is NOT
selected (meaning I just print normally, single page), the printing process
generates 3 pages (minimum) for as little as two lines of text, and for less
than a single page of text (in IE6 or OE6) it generates 21+ pages. It
generates so my FRICKEN pages because, as I said above and as this attached
photo illustrates, ALL of the text, graphics, etc, on the web page are
skewed fully to the LEFT 25% of the screen. In other words, it looks like a
column that is 25% of the width of the browser window, with all information
stacked vertically. - just like it prints.

And as I replied to Steve Cochran's response . . .

I don't know how HP modifies things to work with IE, so I can't be of much
help. I would check with HP and see if they can help or if they have an
FAQ
on their website, because its clearly not an OE issue, but rather one with
how HP and IE interact.

. . . I no longer agree. Why? Because the Print Preview window in Internet
Explorer looks just like the print outs. This FACT proves that the image is
NOT developed by the HP printer, it is generated by some setting within IE6
or modified in the Registry by some FEEBLE MS Update or Hotfix.
