What method of printing are you using? Is it straight print-buffer or
ps-print-buffer for example?

It may be that, if you're just using print-buffer, then you're relying
on the system print processor which will be different between Linux
and Windows.

In your custom-set-variables section in .emacs try putting something
like:

'(printer-name "//servername/printersharename" t)

Emacs Printing Help

Hello from New Mexico!

I have a question about printing from Emacs 21.3.1 under Windows XP
(printing under Linux has always been ok).

Printing C++ code from my Windows Emacs has always produced large type when
actually printed to paper.  Linux printing results in much smaller and
acceptable sized characters.  How do I resize the output to the printer from
Emacs in Windows?

Thanks!
Warren Hunt
