Hi @TheRev56,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

 

Try these steps:

Check Printer Alignment:

  • Start by aligning the printer cartridges through the printer's control panel or using the HP Smart app, if installed.
  • Access the printer settings via the app or control panel and locate the alignment option. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the alignment process.

Paper Quality and Size:

  • Ensure that you are using the correct paper size and type as specified in your document settings. Mismatched paper settings might cause printing issues.

Margins and Layout:

  • Double-check the margins and layout settings in your Microsoft 360 document to ensure they match with the printer settings.

Printer Settings:

  • In the print menu of Microsoft 360, verify the printer settings to ensure the page orientation and scaling are set correctly.
  • Make sure the print settings such as "Scale" and "Fit to Page" are adjusted properly.

Update Printer Drivers:

  • Ensure your printer drivers are up-to-date. You can download the latest drivers from the HP Support website or use Windows Update.

Printer Calibration:

  • Sometimes, recalibrating the printer can help. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for calibration.

Test Print:

  • After making adjustments, try a test print to check if the alignment issue is resolved.

I hope this helps.
