Hello i am trying to print an image but the printable area seems off, i am trying to print a picture from HP Photo creations and when i select the HP Deskjet 2632 it reduces the printable area and the image is off to the left a bit, but when i select a different printer the print area is increased and the image is centered. so it seems like a printer issue, i have the latest drivers.

Your printer does not support borderless printing therefore you ALWAYS get borders/margines no matter what. Its specs

Now, please give it evently borders/margins (top, bottom or left, right) and ask it to center the image before print. Otherwise, try different printer such as photo class printers.
Regards.

Hi MrFarang.
HP Photo Creations has a checkbox called Center on Page. It's in the Advanced Settings section of the printing screen. Perhaps that may help with your printer. The screenshot below shows the print preview on a printer that does not support borderless printing. You'll see a margin, but it's even.
