Print Preview intermittently deletes the bottom third of every pag

C

Chris Mitchell

In Word 2003 and earlier versions, about once a month or so, a document will
print out without the bottom third of each page. If I examine it in Preview,
the text is still missing. It's as if the bottom margin has jumped up the
page destructively, without text flowing to the next page. If I examine the
document outside of Print Preview, it's fine. Closing Word may fix it,
re-booting may fix it, but not always.

Has anyone seen this? Or is Word just trying to get me put away?

Hi Chris,

It's an issue in the printer driver. If the bottom margin is 2.67" and
this is an HP LaserJet, try one of the
"margin fix" drivers from http://www.hp.com/pond/ljbeta/index.html

This is exactly my problem - but there are no "margin fix" drivers on that
website ...

Thanks!

Look again, a little over a third of the way down the page and there is a
group of drivers under the heading "Word Margins Fix"

Is there a fix for the HP 4000?

Thanks!
