Text or graphics are cut off at the edge of the page

Cause: The margins are not set correctly in your software application.

Solution: Make sure the margin settings for the document do not exceed the printable area of the HP All-in-One.

To check your margin settings

1.Preview your print job before sending it to the HP All-in-One.

2.Check the margins.

The HP All-in-One uses the margins you have set in your software application, as long as they are greater than the minimum margins the HP All-in-One supports.

3.Cancel the print job if the margins are not satisfactory, and then adjust the margins in your software application.

Cause: The size of the document you are printing is larger than the paper loaded in the input tray.

Solution: Make sure the layout of the document you are trying to print fits on a paper size supported by the HP All-in-One.
