Welcome to the HP English Community --
When all other causes have been eliminated - Check the printer model.
Margins
DeskJet printers typically require a larger margin along the bottom edge.
If you rotate the print, the larger margin moves to the side.
Borderless Printing | No |
Print Margin Bottom (A4) | 12.7 mm |
Print Margin Left (A4) | 3 mm |
Print Margin Right (A4) | 3 mm |
Print Margin Top (A4) | 3 mm |
There is no software, firmware, or alignment that changes the larger margin requirement.
The solution to "chopped off" is to keep all data inside of 1/2 inch / 12.7mm on the bottom edge.
This limitation includes all text, images, page numbers, footer information, cells, tables, lines, other notations, and all file types, too.
Create your original document with 12.7mm ( 1/2 inch ) margins.
Alternatively, and where it will work for you, Print the content as "Fit", "Shrink to Fit", or a percentage of 100% that will capture all the content on the page.

You are welcome.
Edit / Update
It occurs to me that you might not understand how to get a better answer from us.
We do not have enough information about what you have and what you are doing.
Guessing is a poor method.

Has your mystery printer ever printed a photo before and done so correctly?
What?
There are thousands of HP printer models in the world.
What you can do using a particular model is directly tied to the printer model (unknown).
The setup is relevant to the Operating System / version on your device (both unknown).
Lastly, different applications or print programs might respond differently - what you are using is unknown.
Assuming an HP printer that can take instruction correctly, then the answer is "Sure, the picture might print as needed."
