When I print received documents (e.g. .docx and PDF's) many times I 'loose' text / images at the top and bottom.
I would like to adjust the default top and bottom margins so that all (or most) of my A4 paper is printable. But I really cannot find where to do that, or find out it's even possible at all.
I have a HP Envy 7100 al-in-one and am using Windows 11 (but same problem in Windows 10, so that's not an issue I guess).
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

Found a solution ...
- Install the (basic) driver for the ENVY on your machine
- In Windows remove the ENVY printer and
- add it again as new device
- Now I had more settings available and set in default printing parameters borderless printing to enabled.
Had to translate above from my Dutch Windows, so probably you will have to look for the right place when using another language 😉

Hi Dragon-Fur,
Thanks for replying to my post. I tried to adjust the printing parameter in Word you suggested, but that makes no difference.
The margins seem to be quit a lot more then the mentioned 2 and 3 mm.
As you can see in the photo underneath, the upper part of the icon is cut off, as well as the 't'.
The left icon is the one I printed at work, the right one this morning at home on my Envy. Printing doesn't even get close to the 3 mm top margin ... about 2 cm it is.
At work we have several (HP) printers, and never had any problems. Since (my colleague and) I have the (same) Envy 7100 at home printing our documents are giving this problem. So I guess it's a specific issue with the Envy.
Support @ HP any suggestions? Would be more than welcome 😉
