this printer started off printing fine, but after a few hours it started randomly printing off-center. as I am printing calendars this is a huge problem. I am wasting tons of paper. I have set up different versions off center to compensate but I never know when it is going to print centered again. it usually has too little space on the leading edge, meaning it comes out of the printer with a tiny margin on the right, more often than not. I can't be monkeying around with this. I may have to  try a different brand that doesn't have reports of such problems. I am on my last nerve. My previous hp printers did not have this issue, so why does this one? Maybe i need to return it. I don't have hours more to monkey around with it. sheesh.
