Using Multiple Printers (Windows)

Problem

Windows -- weird printing problems of any kind when using MacNail construction management software, especially when using 2 (two) different printers and switching between them
'margins are the wrong size for the page' message

Diagnosis

do they have 2 printers?
This showed up for a couple of users (ONLY ON SOME FILES) as
1. 'margins are the wrong size for the page'
2. page preview shows blank with just a line
3. prints on many pages.

Solution

To switch printers in Windows, you need to first Exit from XL.
Otherwise, it gets confused about which printer it's sending to.
Files that were page setup to the current printer are OK, but files set to the other printer will have problems.
