I'm trying to print a 4-detail per page report in a special paper (139mm x 304mm).

First it was working trying it using native printing but it was a problem when I tried to print it in a network printer it was HUGE (every page was more than 165MB) and it was very slow. I solutioned this with this thread:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/preview-thread/reporting/telerik-reporting/printing-problem-with-reportviewer-in-silverlight.aspx 

But now I'm having problems with margins. I setup the page with no margin and it is the same size than the page... but it leaves top, left, right and bottom margins...

I don't know what to do... any suggestion?

Hi Fernando,

Every printer has hard margins that cannot be changed. Specifying page margins less than the printer's hard margins would cause the content to be clipped out by the printer, so you should apply margins that are more than the hard margins of the printer.
The same behavior can be observed if you try printing from a word processor software (if it allows you to set such low margins in a first place).

Kind regards,

I was thinking about this but I couldn't believe it :-(

Thanks for your quick answer, I'll try it with those margins.
