Default Problem printing from word

This has nothing to do with the margins, but the print area that the driver
will allow. Word uses the driver settings to determine where it can print.
You can determine where this is by setting all the margins to 0 then when
you see the error message get Word to fix the error. With my printer that
amounts to 0.3cm.

"Why isnt it possible to shrink the print area with 5-10%?" Ask the printer
manufacturer. Word will only print what the driver will allow.

Default in Word is 2,5 cm space of all directions.

Few printers can print to the edge of the page. The limits are set by the
printer driver. Different printers will have different limits.
