Product: HP Color Laser 150nw

Hi All,

Hopefully someone can help. I'm trying to print on an epson inkjet 4850 and then my HP colour laser 150nw. However, the issue I'm having is the alignment! On the epson its perfect, I then try to print on the same sheet on my laser and the print moves down by 4mm but my page on Adobe illustrator hasnt changed or moved it should be printing in the same space in the program as I'm not going over any margins.

I've tried multiple settings, tried making sure the page is straight in the printer but nothing works could you please help.

Basically I'm trying to do some toner foiling.

Thankyou!

Often different drivers will produce a slightly different alignment, as you have found especially with Epson who often is a proprietary driver setup while HP offers PCL and PS printing. Try and match driver types between the two printers and you might have better success. Example, find a PS driver for both printers.
