Default PRINTING PROBLEM!

Hey guys,

I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem I have had for
months now...

Scenerio: I am trying to print a normal word documents with a full-page
border. Sounds simple enough doesn't it? BUT ITS NOT! *glares* It prints the
text alright...but the page border is slightly more aligned to the
right....and the page is cutting out about a inch down the bottom so the
bottom of my border isnt there. I have tried reinstalling microsoft word,
reinstalling printer, re-callibrating printer, everything! I am certain it is
a problem with microsfot word because i tried printing some stuff in notepad
and it was fine. I also tried printing the same full-page border on a dffernt
printer, but it still was all wrongly aligned. So i'm guessing it must be the
software. Does anyone have any suggestions??? I have rang various computer
and printer shops and they all have no idea.

Thank you,

Ben

It could be that your printer thinks it contains letter size paper when your
Word document and paper are actually A4. Click on the Properties button as
you print and check the paper size, you may need to dig around a bit to find
this on some printers. Otherwise, when you're setting the page border have a
look under the Options button in the Page Border section of the Borders and
Shading window, make sure the margins are measuring from edge of page and are
all the same size.
See http://www.allaboutoffice.co.uk/wordpageborder.htm for more information
on this.
