Zebra LP2844 barcode printer using "LP2844" driver (not -Z driver). Using yellow paper 4x6 self-stick labels.

First I designed my label as an Access report and it prints fine, barcodes and all, on 8.5x11 paper.

EDIT: I got the report preview the right size by specifying a specific printer (the barcode printer) on Access Page Setup, now the only problem I have is the top margin is too big. Going into Access Report Design mode, File, Page Setup, shows the top margin at .788 inches. When I try to change it, I tab out of the field and it changes back to .788 inches. This is too large.

In the printer driver Printing Preferences, the unprintable area is:
Top: 0, Left: 0, Bottom: 0, Right: 0.20.

I'm still stumped.

Problem solved.
Go to Control Panel, printer, right click, choose printer Properties, go to "Printer Settings" tab, I could check "Always use driver settings" and this worked.
