Hi folks, my question relates to Excel 2010.
I have 3 workbooks each of which contain a customised label template. It's pretty basic. There are some formulas and data validation to allow the user populate the labels from drop downs. All fine there.
I am using a Zebra ZM400 printer to print the labels. And that's where my problems begin. Each label template is a different size.
I have the ZDesigner ZM400 200 dpi driver installed. I can use the driver utility to set the label width and height. But obviously that will only allow me to specify one set of dimensions. When I print my label having those dimensions all is fine.
Now switch to one of the other labels and the print settings won't work. I can change the settings from within the workbook but these settings are lost as soon as Excel is reopened. Setting the print driver settings to cover the largest range doesn't work.
My question: is there a setting somewhere that I can edit to have the settings from within Excel take precedence over the print driver settings?
I am trying to avoid using VBA, if possible. But if it is necessary then I may have to go that way.
Thanks in advance for any help.
