Title: Changing the width of a printer definition file

We just put a new HP4050N Network printer on our LAN and setup the AS/400 to printer to it via TCP/IP. The printer definition has the following settings:

1. Width = 132 columns
2. Auto rotate = Yes
3. FontSize = 10 dpi

When we print a screen that has 132 columns the fonts are real small and we have about 3" of unused white space on the right margin (Landscape). We would like to use another 2 inches of the right margin and have the fonts set to 10-13.3 dpi (or whatever it takes to enlarge the fonts). The printer it self is set to 10 dpi. Any ideas? Thanks for any help.
