Text is printing too low on the page

If you are preparing to print a document that you have created in Microsoft Word, you may be concerned that all the text on the page will print exactly as you see it on your screen. This is not always the case. You can adjust your print margins to ensure that your text prints on each page exactly the way you would like it to appear.

Opening Your Document
Open your Microsoft Word document by double-clicking the Word icon on your desktop. If you do not see the icon on your desktop, then you can locate it where it is buried on your "Start" menu. Click "Start," followed by "All Programs." Then click "Microsoft Office," followed by "Microsoft Office Word." A new document will open on your screen. Click the "Office Button," followed by "Open." Scroll through the files listed, and double-click the one you would like to print. It will open on your screen.

Check Your Margins
By default, your page margins are set to 1-inch margins on the top, bottom, right and left of your page. You can check your margins or change them by clicking "Page Layout," followed by the "Margins" button.

Select New Margins
Select a different margin size, such as "Narrow," which indicate 1/2-inch margins, or "Wide," which indicate one-inch margins on the top and bottom and two-inch margins on the left and right. You also can select "Moderate," which indicate one-inch margins on the top and bottom and 3/4-inch margins on the left and right. Finally, you can select "Mirrored," which indicates one-inch margins for the top, bottom and outside. The inside margins are set at 1 1/4 inches.

Print Your Page
Print your page. Press "Control" plus the "P" button. The printer dialog menu will come up. Make sure that "All Pages in Range" is selected. Press "OK." If your printer cannot print your new margins, then a new menu will pop up telling you to adjust your margins.

I hope you find it very helpful. Best regards.

The page setup for Outlook Express are controlled by the settings in
Internet Explorer. Use Page Setup in IE to change the margins and that
will fix your problem...


Good luck..

Hi fsaltzman,

You need to check the margin settings in the print preview option, make sure you decrease the margins that are set by default and try printing a test page , this should work fine.

On the File menu, you need to click Page Setup, and then click the Margins tab.
Here you can adjust the margins as per your convenience.

To View page margins :-

1. You need to go on the Tools menu, select Options, and then select the View tab.
   
2. Under Print and Web Layout options, select the Text boundaries check box.

The page margins appear in your document as dotted lines.

You can use these dotted lines to correct your margins so that your student's assignments are not cut off and there is no large margin as you have mentioned in your question.

You can view page margins in either Print Layout or Web Layout view only, and they do not appear on the printed page.

Hope this helps

1. Office Button --> Print --> Page Setup --> Memo Type
2. Print layout shows wrapped text, that's disabled in MS Outlook 2007, you can customize quick accrss bat fot it:-
Office button --> Customize --> Enable all tools --> Select Print Layout View

hi. have you tried print from other pc. ? if still the same issue maybe is a internal problem with your printer

It depends on the page you are trying to print. Some pages do not like printing everything on the page. What I have done is printed to PDF (with images) and then printed the PDF. You can find free PDF printers here:

I assume this error is occuring in Microsoft Word.

1. Create a new document, with a full page of the label you are having trouble printing.
2. To see the margin settings of your document, go to File > Page Setup (or Page Layout > Margins > Custom Margins for Word 2007).
3. Click OK on the margins dialog, and Word will check the settings against your currently selected printer. If a margin is set outside the printable area (usually the bottom margin set to zero), you should see the warning message.
4. Click the Fix button to have Word change the margins
   to match your printer. You should now see the Margins dialog with the new margin settings.
5. Click OK.

One thing to watch for- on some inkjet printers, the printable area is narrower than the labels. This will cause the labels to shift to the right on the page and be misaligned when you print.
If the labels run off the right edge of the page display, or are misaligned when you print, an extra procedure is needed.

1. Undo ([Ctrl]+[Z]) the new margin setting, or create a new page from the label template again.
2. Select the entire table of labels ([Ctrl]+[A]).
3. Right-click the table, and select Table Properties.
4. Click the Text wrapping "Around" option, then the Positioning button.
5. Change the Horizontal position to Center, Relative to Page.
   Uncheck the "Move with text" option. Click OK to the Table Positioning dialog, then click OK to the Table Properties dialog.
6. Left-click (or press an arrow key) to "deselect" the table, then go into the margins dialog (see above) and allow Word to fix the margin settings again.

With the labels aligned to the page, rather than the margins, the new margin settings should not cause the labels to shift.
Once you have the margins set correctly for your printer, I would save the empty page of labels to use as a "template".

Does the bottom border show up in Print Preview? Some printers will not print the full page, to include the border if it is too close to the papers edge. If you adjust the border to be further away from the pages edge, it should print. Instead of applying a page border, you may have to draw a border using a rectangle shape and apply the desired line style.
You can also try to adjust the border margin to measure from "edge of page" instead of measure from "text". This setting is on the options button located on the page border tab under the Borders and Shading window. This may allow you to adjust the margin enough to be able to print the border.

Hi,
here is solution..
Solution Step one: Make sure that the product prints correctly

1. Print a self-test page from the product control panel, from Windows, or from the product software. (See the product user guide, available online, for instructions to print a self-test page.)
2. Check to make sure that black and all colors (if using a color product) print on the self-test page.
   • If the self-test page does not print correctly, an issue might exist with the product hardware. See the product user guide, available online, for further troubleshooting steps.
   • If the self-test page prints correctly, continue with the next step.

Step two: Determine what portion of the page is set to print Many Web pages use frames. Frames divide the screen into multiple windows. Follow these steps to determine what portion of the page is set to print.

1. Click the Internet Explorer icon on the desktop. The Internet Explorer window opens.
2. On the File menu, click Print . The Print dialog box opens.
3. Click the Options tab to view the print settings.
4. Change the settings if required, and then click Print .

Step three: Change the Encoding setting in the Web browser

1. Click the Internet Explorer icon on the desktop. The Internet Explorer window opens.
2. On the Menu bar, click View .
3. Click Encoding to view a list of encoding options.
4. Check the Encoding settings.
   • If Auto Select has a check mark next to it, click to clear the check box.
   • If Western European Windows does not have a check mark next to it, select it.

Try printing again. If the issue continues, proceed to the next step. Step four: Check the page setup settings for the Web browser Web pages are designed to be viewed at a certain screen resolution. If the resolution of the screen is lower than the resolution of the Web page, the whole screen might not display or might not be printed.

1. Make sure that Internet Explorer is open.
2. On the File menu, click Page Setup . The Page Setup dialog box opens.
3. Review the Margins information.
4. Make sure that the margin settings are greater than or equal to the minimum printable region margins for the product. The margins vary slightly among HP All-in-One products. As a general rule, the settings should be at least the values shown in the following table. Side Margin Top Margin Bottom Margin 6.3 mm (0.25 inch) 6.3 mm (0.25 inch) 6.3 mm (0.25 inch)
5. Make necessary changes to the margin settings.
6. Click OK to save the changes.

Try printing again. If the issue continues, proceed to the next step. Step five: Print using Smart Web printing software HP Smart Web Printing is fast, free, downloadable software that enhances how Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox print Web pages. Use HP Smart Web Printing for the following tasks:

• Select text and graphics from any Web site
• Save paper by combining portions of numerous Web pages
• Preview and modify clips before printing

Thank you.......

open ie, change margins in file/page setup and try it again
