I don't have any experience with MapX on XP vs. Win2000 but from troubleshooting other issues I would check 1. Are the XP machines using same printer / printer settings (for ex. HP PCL vs. PS cause us similar problems in Excel) as the Win2000. 2. If so may need to update printer drivers to "XP" ver

Catherine, The pixel limitation of MapInfo is about 28000. Let's suppose that you try to print a 27 inches map at 1200 dpi. The map width multiplied by the resolution will give you the number of pixels of your output file. In this case : 32 400 pixels. This exceeds the pixel limitation
