I am trying to copy and paste images to a word document and print. I can see the entire picture on the word document, but when I print, it prints so large that only part of the image prints on the page. Any suggestions?

Consider using "Insert" as opposed to copy-and-paste to place images into your Word document.
Right-Click on the inserted Image > Adjust Size and Position
Alternate method using Insert and an empty Text Box:
This method ensures the inserted image does not "poke outside" of the pre-set text box boundaries.
Insert > Text box > Draw Text Box > Draw the Text Box on your page >
Insert (again) > Pictures >
Navigate to the folder in which the image is stored >
Select the image (highlight) > Insert
Once the image is inserted, click on the Text Box boundary to move the image.
Although this method can be a bit strange to use, it may be useful in context of what you need to accomplish.

Thanks Dragon-Fur, I just don't understand why I can't do this with this printer. I was always able to do it with my old printer. I should be able to copy and paste an image onto a word doc, and if it all shows on the page, it should print as seen.
