You probably need to adjust your printer settings to a "custom" paper size, plus set print orientation to "landscape".

HI, THANKS.....BUT I TRIED THAT.
IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING WITH THE ADOBE READER.
I AM USING ADOBE READER 7.0 TO SEE THE FILE.
CAN ANYONE SUGGEST A BETTER PROGRAM, SO I I MAKE THE PRINT?/////THANKS////////

You've got an Adoble Illustrator native file format.  Do you have Illustrator?  You can also use programs like Macromedia Freehand to open this file.  Perhaps that will allow you to print it.
