Help wanted with HP printer
Hi all we have a HP printer model c5280 we are trying to centralise pages on both sides so they line up. The pages are made up of j-pegs with art
work on. When on the print menu we select the correct size needed and centre of page but when we print the pages they are off-set. These pages need
to be exact as they are for a magazine booklet format. Any ideas how to set this up as there are no ways that are obvious on the printer. We can only
tell the computer what we want but the printer wont do it
Thankyou
Jacko

The Printer preview looks spot on central but when we print it the picture has a border of of 9mm on left and2/3mm on right hand side.

First of all you need to use the latest hp driver and solution centre. There were a lot of errors in the previous versions.
Check that it hasn't defaulted the setting back to include page scaling for pdf's as this is enabled by default.
Also check under features that the paper size is correct and enable two sided printing and preserve layout.
Having done a test print in my 5280 it was within 1mm without any offset corrections.
