RDLC printing/scaling issues?

I am trying to print a .RDLC file programmatically as per the article here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252091.aspx. The only difference is that I am actually printing to a real printer (HP 1320n).

I am doing this in the context of an ASP.NET web service.

The issues that I am having are that when I execute the web service on my development workstation running IIS, the .RDLC prints to the network laser beautifully; but when I try to run the exact same code on the server (Win2003 SP1), the report prints, but is scaled up by about 125% so that it doesn't fit on the printed page.

This is obviously very frustrating. I have the same driver version installed on both machines, the drivers are configured identically, and the .RDLC file is identical.

Any clues?

Thanks,
Matthew

Are you running RS2005 SP1? I believe some scaling issues were fixed in it.
