Is this a problem with the image not being centered on the page regardless of program? There is usually a registration function in the print quality menus of the printer.

every time I print something it comes out slanted. even if its a word document. I also try looking through the hp setting and I wasnt able to find anything that would help me align it.  Any idea of where I should look to realign my printer. I tried on the Hp smart but It said to download the software and I did but still can't find anything.

On this type of feeder the most common issues are side guides that are not adjusted correctly and something in the paper path that is dragging on the paper and causing it to skew. Has the printer ever worked or has it been like this since new? A recent paper jam may have left some residue in the paper path.

I recently moved and it was printing out good and then i reset it to reset the wifi and that's when its started printing like that. I was thinking maybe something in the settings.
