When I print usually a set of pages, my printer seems to print the document off-center or even push half off of the page depending on the page. It happens with all types of paper but especially card stock. I originally found that if I would print one page at a time, it would be fine. However, I do not have time to print one page at a time for everything. Can someone please help? I have lost over 150 pages of card stock due to this problem. It has done this many times I have printed from it, and I have aligned and cleaned the printer heads with no fix in sight. It happens every time if I print in sets. The preview on my printer shows a preview that is correct, but it comes out not at all like the preview.

May I know which App are you using for printing?
Try printing using Preview and let me know if you face the same issue.

Try using a driver setting other than "shrink oversize" as this may be causing the offset. I would fit to size if that works.

A customer printing a 7.5x10 document on US Letter size from Adobe Reader in Windows is experiencing something similar. There should be a 1/2'' margin all around but the printer crops the top and bottom (about 1mm) and the document is not centred even though it looks ok on the preview image.
