Default Problem with Margins

The 2.67" margin is the dead giveaway. You're using an HP LaserJet, right?
Although there are other workarounds, most users have said that using a new
driver from

I have my default margins set to 1" top and bottom. When I open a new
document the margins are 1", however, when I start typing in the new

document
and I go to save I get a dialog box that says "the margins are outside of

the
page" if I go "fix" Word sets the margin to 2.67" if I "ignore" Word cuts

of
what is on the bottom of the page. I am using Word 2003.

Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,

Dee
