Default Margin changes at section break

I have inherited an 8 page document with the first 4 pages just text with
some .jpg images inserted, while page 5 (section break, next page - from
portrait to landscape with a section break inserted at the end of this page
to go back to portrait) the error appears "the margins in section 2 are
outside of the printing area. Would you like to fix this error or continue
printing" If I say no, the page will print (consistently) with a margin of
2.67" which cuts off either the graphic or the text. If, however, I select
the text on this page and select "print selected text" it will print
perfectly.

I have copied each individual page into a new document and it still will ask
the same question. And again, if I select file, print, scale page "zoom, 8
1/2"X 11", it will give me the same error message. I can print this page
from the existing document and from the new "copied" document if I select the
text on the page and select "file, print - selected text" it prints perfectly.

This has been driving me crazy. I know how to print the document, but it is
not "my" document so that when I send it to the approver I have to send
instructions on how to print it. This is NOT satisfactory.

I should mention that this has happened on several other documents when
another person has sent a document to the color HP laser jet printer and had
this happen, then I tell them to send it to me and it prints perfectlly for
me.

I am at wits end. Can anyone help me with this problem? Has this occured
to anyone else?

thanks all - you have always been the solution to the "pulling my hair out"
crazies!
