The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Mail Gateway to Fax, version 3.0a 
- Microsoft Excel for Windows, version 4.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

The Microsoft Mail Gateway to FAX, FAX Printer Driver (FPD) may exhibit scaling
problems with Excel version 4.0.

CAUSE
=====

Printer drivers do not control how the image is scaled. Scaling is left to the
application.

RESOLUTION
==========

Select the Print Preview command before printing the image. If it is not scaled
the way you want it, correct it before printing.

This problem does not occur if you connect the Microsoft FAX driver to Port
rather than LPT1.
