Hi @Gerry1953,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.  


Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

If your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M130fw printer has started printing off-center with the right side missing, you can try the following troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue.

 

  • Check Paper Alignment: Make sure the paper you're using is properly loaded and aligned within the paper tray. Adjust the paper guides to ensure the paper is snugly in place and centered.
  • Paper Type and Size Settings: Ensure that the paper size and type settings in the printer driver and on the control panel match the paper you are using. If the settings are incorrect, it can lead to misalignment.
  • Clean the Rollers: Dirty or worn rollers can cause paper misalignment. Clean the rollers by following the instructions in your printer's user manual. This often involves using a lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol to clean the rollers.
  • Firmware Update: Check if there are any firmware updates available for your printer on the HP website. Sometimes, firmware updates can resolve printing issues.
  • Print Preview: Before printing a document, use the print preview feature in your software to ensure that the content is correctly positioned on the page.
  • Driver Update: Update your printer driver to the latest version. You can download the latest driver from the HP website or use the built-in Windows or macOS driver update feature.
  • Check for Mechanical Issues: Inspect the internal components of the printer for any loose parts or obstructions that might be affecting the paper feed and alignment. Make sure there are no paper jams in the printer.
  • Page Margins: Check the page margins in your document. If the document has incorrect margins set, it can result in off-center printing.
  • Calibrate the Printer: Many printers have a calibration or alignment feature in their settings. Refer to your printer's user manual to learn how to calibrate the printer.

 

It's essential to perform these steps systematically to identify and resolve the cause of the off-center printing issue.

 

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
