Printing with Excel for Mac

When i try to print an Excel file on my MacBook Pro (running Mojave 10.14.6) the entire print area will only print if i do not select "scale to fit". If i select "scale to fit" the program will only print the first few columns and will not print the rest of the selected print area. I am running Excel for Mac (2016), version 16.16.14 (190909).


Has anyone else had this problem and if so can you give me a solution?


Thanks Henry

As MS Office is not an Apple product and there are not as many Office users active here as one would think, I believe you will be better served by asking in Microsoft's Office forums. MS Office questions posted in these forums tend to linger a long time before getting any kind of helpful response.


MS made their forums less user-friendly than before by making it harder to limit answers to Mac subjects, but it can be done when you know the trick, Start here: 


Results in Office - Microsoft Community.


That will display this page header:



1) Use the “Office Topic” pull-down to select your Office app.


2) Limit answers to Mac topics with the “Office Sub-topic” pull-down.


3) If needed, use the “Show Filters” option to further narrow the results.


Everyone there is both and Office user and a Mac user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. I believe you will find the contributors there knowledgeable and very helpful.

I've not had this problem and I just printed out 3 items yesterday that were one page documents that I scaled to fit because the width was a little too much.


I had a similar problem with another program which I 'solved' by printing as a PDF which worked just fine, then I printed the PDF.
