Local ReportViewer - Printing margins off by ~1/8 inch

I am printing my reports from my local report viewr, and the margins are
off by 1/8 inch if I include a header. It looks like printing shifts the
contents of the report 1/8 inch to the right, borking everything.
1. Report has a "header" area. Without this header, the printing is fine.
2. Report body is 7" wide
3. Margins are .75" (6/8) inch on all sides
4. Print Preview mode displays the report properly, centered
5. Output is similarly skewed on all printers (tried 4)
6. This is using the VS SP1 version of the RS dll's.
Setting the margins to Left: 0.625, Right: 0.875 (5/8&7/8) actually causes
it to print centered, so I know it is paying attention. When I do this, the
print layout mode shows the contents shifted to the left 1/8", as expected.
I assume that people print using this control, or at least it was tested,
so has anyone else seen this or is it a confirmed bug?
Thanks,

P.S. In a related bug, if I include the header then the local viewer __insists__
on rendering the page at 8.5 inches wide, regardless of the fact that the
body is still 7". This doesn't seem to affect printing, but without the
header it only renders at the body width, 7", rather than giving me 1.5"
of blank spaceCheck the "Spacing" property under the Layout Tab of the Report Properties
window.
Set it to "0in".

Local - Printing margins are off by ~1/8 inch

I am printing my reports from my local report viewr, and the margins are off by just a little bit. It looks like printing shifts the contents of the report 1/8 inch to the right, borking the margins.

Report body is 7" wide Margins are .75" inch on all sides Print Preview mode displays the report properly, centered Output is similarly skewed on all printers (tried 4) This is using the VS SP1 version of the RS dll's.

However, when I print the report I get it shifted to the right by 1/8 inch. This leaves me with a 7/8" margin on the left, and a 5/8" margin on the right.

Setting the margins to Left: 0.625, Right: 0.875 (5/8&7/8) actually causes it to print centered, so I know it is paying attention. When I do this, the print layout mode shows the contents shifted to the left 1/8", as expected.

Check which version of SSRS you are running. I would highly suggest visting this page http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/sjones/2960.asp and reading the information. It helped me a lot as I had also been frequently dealing with this printing bug. Good luck!
