To imply that the OP's issue renders IE8 useless without first upgrading to Office 2007 would be incorrect in my opinion. It's more an irritation, which can be added to the list of things that go into making the decision to upgrade (or not) to IE8. One way of dealing with the problem would be to only allow Plain Text messages at the client or the smtp server. Tim

The problem brought up by the OP doesn't occur (or I should say that I do not have it) when IE8 is used with Office 2007. I believe that it is one of those "bad combo" problems that occur when one tries to use both old and new applications from Microsoft on the same piece of hardware.

The right side of the email was getting cut off. I uninstalled IE8 and went back to IE7 and they can print fine once again. Anyone else seen this?
