HP DeskJet 2852e All-in-One Printer
Ubuntu LTS

My older HP 3850 All-in-One died. I replaced it with HP Deskjet 2852e. My printing/scanning needs are few. I run Ubuntu 24.4.1 and have no problem printing letter size and scanning to file. I like to print (landscape orientation)  my recipes on 4x6 index cards, My older printer handled the cards perfectly. When I edit one of my previously printed cards and attempt to print the new version, the printer created a 1/2 inch margin on the left edge, which is the leading edge going into the printer. 

Any ideas?
