Default How do I set my document to bleed to the edges when printing?

I'm trying to create forms for my business that are recognizable at a glance.
To do this I've added a different colored autoshape (a triangle) containing
a document-specific acronym to the top right corner of each form.

The document looks great on my screen, but the print margins cut off the
bulk of the shape in the print preview and when the document actually prints.
Is there a way to bleed to the edges when I print from Word? Or is there
absolutely no way to do this?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Very few printers can print clear to the edge for mechanical reasons. Word's
Print Preview shows what will print.
