SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Project, if you are using the Generic/Text Only printer driver, you may experience any of the following problems when you print your document or when you view it in print preview:  When you print your project or view it in print preview, more pages than necessary are used to print or display the document.

-or- When you print a Gantt chart, task bars are not printed (although they appear in print preview) or you receive the following error message:

There is not enough printable space available on the page





CAUSE
These problems are by design of the Generic printer driver. For example, task bars are not printed because the printer driver only prints text.



MORE INFORMATION
If you are printing a project with three one-day tasks, the project may be printed on up to three pages. These excess printed pages occur because the driver allocates extra space between task rows.

To resolve the problems, Use a driver specific to the printer you are printing to.
