Deskjet 5150 - Change of Microsoft Office results in change of print appearance

Until recently I used Excel '97 and Windows XP on my desktop PC.   I now have a new laptop with Excel 2007 and Windows 7.   If I work on my spreadsheet using the laptop, and save it as an Excel '97 file, when I take a copy to my desktop PC for printing - the spreadsheet looks smaller.  The margins appear bigger despite the settings being exactly the same.    I am being forced to cut and paste from the laptop copy into the desktop PC copy.  If I could set up a network life would be easier - but I can't - so I am forced to carry a removable drive between each PC.  Any ideas ?

MS Office only comes in one language at a time.  You have to download another version in English.  You should be able to use the same authorization code.
For MS products it is really best to go to the forums they run.

  • Microsoft office crashes when trying to print

    Hi, upgraded my Mac from Maverick to Yosemite and now my Excel, Word, Powerpoint randomly crash when i try to print (doesnt matter if i try to print to an actual printer or make it into a pdf.). At the beginning I noticed that especially it happened when i want to print just 1 page out of a longer Word document OR i am changing from letter to ledger size in Excel but now there is no rhyme or reason.
    I did the Office updates, re-started obviously but as i am not very good at this software troubleshooting then i am at loss...
    Hopefully someone can help!

    here is the crash report (if i got it right)

  • Microsoft Office Outlook Error Message

    Can't open Microsoft Office Outlook. the following error message appears everytime i try to open the email:
    errors have been detected in the file: C:\users\TPRJ001\AppData\local\microsoft\outlook\outlook1.ost
    quit outlook and all mail-enabled applications, and then use the repair tool (scanpst.exe) to diagnose and repair errors in the file

    Hi,
    Based on the research, this issue can be caused by several factors, such as the corrupt PST
    file, incompatible Outlook add-ins, and corrupt Outlook Profile. At this point, I recommend that we follow the steps below to troubleshoot this issue.
    Step 1: Repair the PST
    file
    =====================
    The "Microsoft Office Outlook Inbox Repair Tool" utility is available to repair the PST
    file. I suggest you perform the following steps to run this utility and repair the PST
    file first.
    1.       
    Click Start, click Run, enter "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OfficeXX\SCANPST.EXE" and press Enter.
    NOTE: If Inbox Repair Tool window does not appear, please click Start, click Search and search for "SCANPST.EXE"
    file.
    2.       
     In the Inbox Repair Tool, please enter/paste the path below:
    C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst
    3.       
    Click Start to begin scanning your
    file.
    When you are finished with the Inbox Repair Tool, restart Outlook to check the results.
    If the issue persists, let's start the Outlook in Safe Mode to test the issue.
    In this mode, the add-ins won't be loaded with the Outlook program and it will become more stable.
    Step 2: Start Outlook in Safe Mode
    ===============================
    1. Close Outlook first. Click Start, and click on Run.
    2. In the Open field, type: "Outlook /safe" (without the quotation marks).
       Notes: There is a space character between Outlook and the forward slash (/).
    3. Press Enter.
    However, if the error message still occurs when exiting Outlook, I recommend that we create a new Outlook profile to troubleshoot the issue.
    Note: A new Profile is a new environment for us to use Outlook. To create a new Profile is only for a test to see if the problem is related to the corrupt Profile of Outlook. Creating new Profile will not do any damage to the old Profile.
    Step 3: Test in a new Outlook Profile
    ============================
    1. On the Start menu, click Control Panel.
    2. Click Switch to Classic View, and then click the Mail icon.
    3. In the Mail Setup dialog box, click the Show Profiles button.
    4. On the General tab, click to select the Prompt for a profile to be used check box.
    5. Click Add.
    6. In the Profile Name box, type a descriptive name for the new profile, and then click OK.
    7. In the E-mail Accounts dialog box, click Add a new e-mail account, and then click Next.
    8. Select the appropriate server type for your new e-mail account, and then click Next.
    9. Fill in the appropriate information as prompted to configure the account again, and then click Next.
    10. Click OK.
    11. Restart Outlook and select the new profile in the popup window.
    12. Please check if the issue occurs in the new/empty Outlook profile.
    For more information, please refer to the following Knowledge Base article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;829918
    If the issue still occurs, please let us know.
    Thanks

  • Microsoft Office 2008 crashes when printing since upgrading to Yosemite

    Ever since upgrading my Macbook Pro (late 2009) to OS X Yosemite I'm having trouble with Microsoft Office 2008. Whenever I try to print from any of the Office programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), the program will crash and the file will not print. I am still able to print from other programs (Safari, Preview, etc...). And aside from this I'm having no other issues with the Office programs. So at the moment I'm reducing to having to save files as a PDF and then printing from Preview. Can anyone help me troubleshoot?

    I'm not sure if the printer driver is updated, it usually does that automatically...
    That sounds magical but I have never had printer drivers automatically update themselves. After your upgrade to Yosemite, did you setup your printer using Print & Scan in System Preferences?
    ...office programs are the only ones crashing when I try to print, so wouldnt that indicate an Office issue rather than a printer driver issue?
    No, not necessarily. See thread "microsoft office crashes when trying to print."
    If you believe the your problem is an "Office issue" then you might try the Microsoft forum.

  • Font problems using Adobe CS and Microsoft Office

    I am having problems with using my installed fonts in software like Adobe CS and Microsoft Office. The fonts do not appear in the font lists of these programs, while they do appear in TextEdit (and in the Font Book).
    I already did the following:
    - disabling/enabling the fonts
    - entering the save mode (cleaning the cache)
    - cleaning the cache using a third party program (cannot recall the name)
    - reinstalling OS X
    Can somebody help me?

    A little update.
    Often when I boot my iMac and open for example Adobe Illustrator not every font (original and newly installed) show up in program's font list, but sometimes all fonts do appear.
    So this is a very strange phenomenon.
    Problem is that I am working on a design for which I need to use custom fonts, but I can't. I'm stuck!
    So please, can anybody help me?

  • Microsoft One Note selection disappeared from Printer list

    Network Magic Version installed: 5.5.9195.0
    Connection to the Internet, Cable.
    Operating system, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Service Pack 2
    Anti-Virus Program, Norton Internet Security
    Before installation of Network Magic, when printing you could choose Microsoft Office One Note in the printer list to print directly to One Note.  After installation of Network Magic it disappeared.  I need Cisco to tell me how to get it back as I print directly to One Note frequently for saving documentation.

    Hi, just attempted to reproduce your issue and was not able to.  I suggest doing a repair reinstall of OneNote to fix the issue.
    My Cisco Network Magic Configuration:
    Router: D-Link WBR-2310 A1 FW:1.04, connected to Comcast High Speed Internet
    Desktop, iMac: NM is on the Windows Partition, using Boot camp to access Windows, Windows 7 Pro 32-bit RTM, Broadcom Wireless N Card, McAfee Personal Firewall 2009,
    Mac Partition of the iMac is using Mac OS X 10.6.1 Snow Leopard
    Laptop: Windows XP Pro SP3, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG, McAfee Personal Firewall 2008
    Please note that though I am a beta tester for Network Magic, I am not a employee of Linksys/Cisco and am volunteering my time here to help other NM users.

  • Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 - Activation after hardware change

    Have an original Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 software which is licenced for 3 computers.
    In the past had it up and running OK on a Hewlett Packard PC and a Samsung Netbook.
    When I made some changes to the PC early last year it asked me to activate again, and the process worked OK and was carried out online.
    A few months ago my PC crashed, so I took the harddrive out of the PC and inserted it into the shell of another old HP PC, which resulted in me having to activate it again.
    Now (while abroad) my Netbook crashed and I took out the harddrive and installed it in to the shell of an old Samsung Laptop.
    It is now asking me to activate, however when I try it says I exceeded the number of permitted installs (which rubbish, as they not copied on to new computers while left on the old ones but physically still on the same drive, even if totally different motherboard
    etc)!
    As it won't activate online it gives an option of activating by telephone, but if you select this option in the wizard the wizard disappears and no list of contact numbers appears.
    Obviously trying to call back to the UK to speak to a UK call centre would be costly and even if I get to a person how do I enter the code (that I have) if the wizard is not open to key it in to?
    If I call a local number the support will be in Estonian or Russian rather than English and can they support a UK purchased software rather than locally purchased one?
    It is a real pain!
    Makes you want to switch to OpenOffice!
    Can any of you email me at mueller at tesco dot net and tell me what I can do?
    Being out of work at the moment I can not afford to upgrade to the latest version, and my son needs to use Office on this laptop for his schoolwork.
    I can give you my AAAAA-AAAAA-NANAA-NANAA-NAAAA type activation code if you need it but thought it best not to post it on an open forum.
    Thanks, Regards, Richard

    Hello Bhatt,
    Most probably your PC was corrupted by the Dell software you downloaded. First of all, I'd recommend contacting the Dell support service representative. Also you can try to re-install Office.  
    Finally, I'd recommend asking such question on the
    Microsoft Community forum instead. The current forum is for Office developers.

    I created a spreadsheet using Microsoft office 2010 Excel.  When I open the sheet using Numbers, the formatting changes.  How do I fix this?

    If you plan to share or work with people who regulary use MS Excel you should not try to use this in Numbers.  You will have constant problems with how each program translates the formatting.
    If you want to use Numbers, use it exclusively.  If it is for your job use the tool your company uses.

  • My icons all changed from the program icon to one Microsoft Office icon

    I was reviewing emails and was reading one....I have no idea what I did, but all the desktop icons for my various programs were all changed to one icon....which is an icon for Microsoft Office 2010.  I have tried to figure out what I need to do to reset them to what they were originally.  Does anyone know how to do this?  Can the explaination be in user friendly terminology, please.

    1. Open Windows Explorer (any folder/drive).
    2. As the IconCache is a hidden file, you need to enable “Show hidden files” option to see the same. To do this, head over to Tools > Folder Options, switch to View tab, and finally enable Show Hidden files, folders, and drives option.
    3. Now navigate to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local folder and then delete IconCache.db file. Here username is your user profile name.
    4. Reboot your computer to rebuild the icon cache.
    5. All icons should be displayed correct now.
    Alternately, you can download a tool from the following weblink that will do this for you:
    http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/141/0/e/Rebuild_Icon_Cache_v0_7b_by_screeny05.rar
    The tool has three options, one to rebuild the icon cache, another one to restore the original icon cache file and third option to delete the back up file of icon cache. When you rebuild the cache, it takes a back up of existing IconCache.db.
    I am an HP employee.

  • Can't change language on Microsoft office 2011

    I live in Britain, I have Microsoft office 2011 and use it a lot. For some reason I can not permanently change my language to British English as it keeps defaulting back to US english whenever I open word, or powerpoint. Can someone tell me why this happens and how to fix it?

  • How can I change the Microsoft Office Click to Run from drive letter 'Q' to something else?

    How can I change the Microsoft Office Click to Run from drive letter 'Q' to something else?
    We have a legacy app that used drive letter 'Q' already, now the newer machines are coming in with 'Q' preassigned to Microsoft Office Click to Run, and it is causing problems.  There has to be a way to change the drive letter assignment to some
    other letter besides 'Q' 

    Hi,
    Office that is delivered by Click-to-Run is installed on the Q drive, this cannot be changed.
    To work around this problem, uninstall the Click-to-Run version of Office and then install with the traditional MSI-based installation.
    To switch to using an MSI-based Office edition, you can learn something useful from this link below:

  • Change the language in Microsoft Office Student edition

    Hi all,
    I lived in Canada.
    I just got my new MacBook Pro with the microsoft office mac home and student pre-installed. When I order it online, I don't have any choice to select the language. The only one language choice is just for the guide (not for software).
    When I open my Mac, I got the microsoft office inside but with French language.
    I'm wondering if I can change the language to English because I don't want the french one..Or do yo think that there's no solution except getting the new microsoft office CD with the english edition?
    Thanks....

    I bought it online so that I think I can't come to the store to ask for exchange . And also, I've opened the package. I'm wrong for not reading it first, I just notice that it says Office Mac Home Student 2008 Mac French on the top of the plastic.
    I didn't notice it really...
    And I've opened the package now, sigh.
    I think maybe I'll try to call them after this. And if they offer the same answer too (borrowing the english installer from friends), I think that I'm in a big problem since I know no one right now at school...sigh sigh, this is really a big problem. But can't I complain to them that I don't order this French version?
    Because I choose english for my language (when I configure my Mac Book) in introduction or what..I forgot what it's called..
