Default Duplex printing problems

It *is* a printer issue. Most printers (especially inkjets) have a
significantly larger unprintable are on the trailing edge (bottom of
portrait, one side of landscape). You have to work around this. See

What size paper is selected in the Page Setup dialog and what are the
margin settings?

I regularly print programs in landscape to be folded in half and I got a
duplex printer so I didn't have to do it manually. When I print a
document,
whether it's word or excel or 2007 or 2010 or even 2003, the text gets
pushed
up the page so that there's a very large margin on the right side of a
landscape document or on the bottom of a portrait one. I spent 2 hours on
phone with HP and they swear it's a MS Word issue with margins - Anybody
give me any help please!!!
