hi, 

my printer was working fine for 2 years now, then recently when i try to print any thing word, pdf, it just shrinks the page.

so a page that should fill the entire page. there is now a about an inch taken from the bottom and from the sides.

If all print jobs are being shrunk likey one of your defaults has been changed. Check scalling and margin settings

Not sure word supports borderless printing. If you are printing photographs Word is not the best choice of software. It looks like it is applying the borders that you have specified in the driver.
