print alignment on my page when I print is far to the right

[Maymae1]

My HP Laserjet Pro MFP M281CDW   prints out on a page far to the right of the page.  Not just emails but word docs and the like.

So how do I align the print properly so it prints on the paper with the proper margins?  I have Win 10 64bit I have all the latetest printer updates and drivers.

Thanks

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

Does this happen while copying also?

Let's try to do a root uninstall and reinstall of the software:

Unplug any USB cable, if any, before doing this.

1.) In Windows, search for and open Programs and features

2.) Select your HP Printer

3.) Select Uninstall

4.) In Windows, search for and open Devices and printers

5.) In the Devices and Printers windows look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose 'Delete' or 'Remove Device'

6.) Open up the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo.

7.) Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between “printui.exe” and “/s”)

8.) Click on the "Drivers" tab

9.) Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it Click on it and click Remove at the bottom

10.) Select Ok

11.) Select Apply and Ok on the Print Server Properties windows

12.) Close Devices and Printers

13.) Open up the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo

14.) Type c:/programdata and click Ok. Go to Hewlett Packard folder, remove any printer related folders & files.

15.) Restart the computer.

Once done, please download and install the software from here:

You need to run the tray alignment procedure outlined in the user manual

Step three: Set the individual tray alignment
Follow these steps when text or images are not centered or aligned correctly on the printed page when printing from specific trays.
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, select the Setup menu.
2. Select the following menus:
●System Setup
●Print Quality
●Adjust Alignment
●Print Test Page
3. Select the tray to adjust, and then follow the instructions on the printed pages.
4. Print the test page again to verify the results. Make further adjustments if necessary.
5. Select OK to save the new settings.
