[AccessD] Urgent one please - Page Setup settings reverttodefaultwhen report closes

Kath,
if you set it to standard printer, it will be influenced by whatever 
settings are there, including margins and landscape/portrait setings.
with specific printer all these settings wil be saved with your report and 
used on all PCs.
