Printer not printing the bottom of any document.

[KristinLD]

Every time I print any document, the bottom is cut off. I adjusted the paper in the feeder, restarted the printer, deleted it and restarted it. I can't seem to get to the dialog box for changing the margins in this PDF either.

Are you using a DeskJet printer??

If yes,

The source of the issue could be that the margins in the document are smaller than what the printer hardware supports.

For example,

Most -- almost every single model of - DeskJet printers require a larger margin along the bottom edge of the printed page.

=====================================

Printing - Important -

The printer requires a larger margin along the bottom edge (1/2 inch).

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.
