Minimize printing margins on 5x7 card media on Color Laserjet 400 M451

[markschnegg1]

 I have an HP Color Laserjet 400 M451dn. I am trying to print on 5x7 card stock but need to set the margins to 1/16". The file I am using can be Adobe Illustrator CC, Adobe InDesign CC or Acrobat DC. If not, is there another print management program that can do this? I can't find anything in the normal printer setup to allow this. I can understand whyy there is a he=ard limit when using 8 1/2 x 11 but it seems  smaller paper should be able to set much smaller margins. 

Any ideas?

Thanks

Product appears to have been introduced sometime between 2012 to 2015.

The size of the paper - or the size of the printed content - does not impact the minimum margins supported by a printer.

Print Margin Bottom (A4)	4.23 mm
Print Margin Left (A4)	4.23 mm
Print Margin Right (A4)	4.23 mm
Print Margin Top (A4)	4.23 mm

4.23 mm > Inches = 0.1665354
