Trying to figure out why my printer keeps cutting off the bottom of my pages. I have set my printer preferences to A5 paper and still had cut off the bottom of my page. I then did a custom size and manually type in the dimensions and even zero'd the margins, but my bottom part of the page gets cut. The top of the page is completely fine and doesn't have an issue going to the edge. I even tried to print through adobe acrobat. The only way to get my entire print on the page is to scale it down to about 90% but then I have large boarders.

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

 

I can offer just one idea:

The result might be due to this printer requiring a larger margin on the bottom than on sides / top.

 

If the bottom margin is set to less than the printer can handle, the job might fail outright, issue a warning, or print - and then do the best it can with what it has been told.
