Default I'm trying to print 3x5 note cards, but can't reduce top margin

Set all the margins to 0" in Page Setup. When you exit, Word will tell you
that one or more of the margins is outside the printable area and offer to
fix them. Accept the offer. The margins Word sets are the smallest you can
use with the selected printer.

I'm trying to print information on 3x5 note cards, but I am having trouble
adjusting the top margin. I've gone into the page set up and have the top
margin at zero, but when I print the card the margin remains at one inch.
I'd like to get the top margin down to 1/4 inch so I can fit more
information. I also have the header/footer set to 0. I'm also getting a
message when I print that says material in section 1 is outside the

printable
area.
